Chapter 20, Problem 89GP

A bowl contains a large number of red, orange, and green jelly beans. You are to make a line of three jelly beans. (a) Construct a table showing the number of microstates that correspond to each macrostate. Then determine the probability of (b) all 3 beans red, and (c) 2 greens, 1 orange.

Consider a case of n particles and two compartments, if n1 is the number of particles in one compartment and remaining n2=n-n1 particles in other compartment, then the number of microstates in the macrostate (n1, n-n1) or thermodynamic probability is
A box contains 100 gas molecules all released on the left side of the box. What is the initial entropy of all the gas molecules on one side? You can calculate the number of microstates (left/right distribution of molecules) possible by the equation W = N! / ( nL! * nR!,) where N is the total number of molecules and nL is the number on the left and nR is the number on the right. What is the entropy of the most disorganized distribution of gas molecules?
The Gibbs function of a particular gas is G = nRT In(P) - AP² + B Where A and B are constants. Find expression for (i) The entropy S of the gas (ii) The volume of the gas (iii) The equation of state of the gas (iv) The change in entropy of the gas when its pressure (P) increases to 3P.
