This article examines the relationship between classical and quantum propagation of chaos. (In this context, "chaos" refers to the Boltzmann's Ansatz of molecular disorder, not to chaotic dynamics.) Classical propagation of chaos is shown to occur when quantum systems that propagate quantum molecular chaos are suitably prepared, allowed to evolve without interference, and then observed.
