Question
A system comprising of one mole of distinguishable and non-interacting molecules has a two-fold degenerate ground energy level, a two-fold degenerate excited energy level at 1237 cm1 and a nondegenerate excited energy level at 2010 cm-1 at 300 K and 1 atm. Calculate (b) the partition function, q. (1) the number of molecules in each energy level. the change in the ratio of the molecules in the first excited energy level with respect to the ground energy level when the temperature increases by 10-fold. (ii) (iv) the total energy, E. (v) the partition function when T = 0.
