The four lowest electronic levels of a Ti atom are: J = 2, 3, 4 and 1, at 0, 170, 387 and 6557 cm-1, respectively. There a many other electronic states at higher energies. The boiling point of Ti is 3287 oC. What are the relative populations of these levels at the boiling point if the degeneracy of levels is 2J + 1? Is the ground state most highly populated level?
