Chapter 17, Problem 17.51E
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The value of S for 1mol of Hg vapor at 298.15K temperature and 0.001960torr pressure is to be stated.

Concept introduction:

Statistical thermodynamics is 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,

q=(2πmkTh2)3/2V

It is used to calculate the state functions like energy, pressure, wavelength etc. of the thermodynamic system. The expressions obtained for state functions using partition functions help to determine the statistical aspect of thermodynamic system.
