In a certain gas at room temperature (300 K), the energy levels of its particles are separated by 0.1 eV.
Calculate the ratio of the number of particles in the second excited state (E = 0.3 eV) to the number of particles in the ground state (E = 0 eV) using the Boltzmann Factor formula.
Give your answer to two decimal places.
Give COMPLETE solution. Topic: Grand canonical ensembe (Statistical Physics)
The Boltzmann constant has a value of kg = 0.69503476 cm-1/K. At what temperature would kBT be equivalent to the first energy level
spacing, E₁-Eo ha for a harmonic oscillator of frequency w = 500 cm-1? This is a crude indication of the temperature needed to
appreciably populate the n = 1 vibrational level.
