Chapter 17, Problem 17.17E
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The most probable distribution of a three-particle system having four possible energy levels, as shown in Figure 17.5 is to be stated. Whether the thermodynamic properties of such a system are determined solely by considering the most probable distribution or not is to be stated.

Concept introduction:

The thermodynamic state of a large microscopic system is understood using statistical thermodynamics. The large microscopic system is separated into tiny parts known as microsystems. Each microsystem is defined by the parameters known as microstates of that system.

need help please and thanks dont understand only need help with C-F Learning Goal: As discussed during the lecture, the enzyme HIV-1 reverse transcriptae (HIV-RT) plays a significant role for the HIV virus and is an important drug target. Assume a concentration [E] of 2.00 µM (i.e. 2.00 x 10-6 mol/l) for HIV-RT. Two potential drug molecules, D1 and D2, were identified, which form stable complexes with the HIV-RT. The dissociation constant of the complex ED1 formed by HIV-RT and the drug D1 is 1.00 nM (i.e. 1.00 x 10-9). The dissociation constant of the complex ED2 formed by HIV-RT and the drug D2 is 100 nM (i.e. 1.00 x 10-7).   Part A - Difference in binding free eenergies Compute the difference in binding free energy (at a physiological temperature T=310 K) for the complexes. Provide the difference as a positive numerical expression with three significant figures in kJ/mol. The margin of error is 2%.   Part B - Compare difference in free energy to the thermal…
