01eV, E2 = 0.02eV, and β = 1/(KB*T). Given KB = 1.38 x 10^-23 J K^-1 and T = 298K, we have: β = 1 / (1.38 x 10^-23 * 298) ≈ 2.42 x 10^21 eV^-1 Z = e^(-2.42 x 10^21 * 0.01) + e^(-2.42 x 10^21 * 0.02) Z ≈ 11.137 Show more…

Consider a 10000 distinguishable particles at room temperature, 298 K. Suppose that each particle has 2 energy levels, 0.01 eV and 0.02 eV. Find the number of the particles in each energy level. ( Boltzmann's constant is 1.3807 x 10-23 J K-1.)

Consider a system of distinguishable particles having only two non-degenerate energy levels separated by an energy that is equal to the value of kT at 10 K. Calculate (a) the ratio of populations in the two states at (1) 1.0 K, (2) 10 K, and (3) 100 K, (b) the molecular partition function at 10 K, (c) the molar energy at 10 K, (d) the molar heat capacity at 10 K, (e) the molar entropy at 10 K.
