(3) Let us assume that there are four distinguishable particles (A, B, C and D) and they occupy five energy
levels, namely, 0J, 1J, 2J, 3J and 4J and coefficient refers to each of that level. For example, particle
occupy OJ will have zero joules, if 2 particles occupy 1J, each particle has 1J unit energy. There is no
restriction of occupancy of number of paricles in any energy levels. Total energy is 4 unit. Determine
the total number of distributions that will give a total energy of 4J and show their arrangements as a
figure
(4) Show that the chemical potential from Aink and from Gink for an ideal gas is the same.
