✦ Synopsis

An axiomatic definition of Shannon's entropy H is suggested under the assumption that it is an analytic function. From the two simple axioms given, H = -Cpk log pk follows in a straightforward manner.

## Abstract Shannon's theory is applied for the first time to the simulation of naphtha pyrolysis for estimating selective coefficients of the primary reaction and predicting the feedstock component content. Compared with other methods, this approach can be extrapolated and provides more accurate r
