1) Information entropy is based only on frequencies of symbols in a
message. Let suppose that molecules with different velocities can be
indexed by their velocities applied as symbols. Mixed and unmixed
molecules have the same frequencies, and thus the same entropy.
Information entropy does not depend on mixing.
2) Information entropy is maximal, when all symbols are exploited with
the same frequencies (redundancy of natural languages). Molecules have
different velocities.
