Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The value of partition function at the given temperatures is to be calculated.

Concept introduction:

Statistical thermodynamics used to describe all possible configurations in a system at given physical quantities such as pressure, temperature and number of particles in the system. An important quantity in thermodynamics is partition function that is represented as,

qigiei/kT

Where,

gi represents the degeneracy.

i represents the energy of ith microstate.

k represents the Boltzmann constant with value 1.38×1023J/K.

T represents the temperature (K).

It is also called as canonical ensemble partition function.
