Ch.18 - Thermodynamics: Entropy, Free Energy & Equilibrium

Chapter 18, Problem 50

Consider the distribution of ideal gas molecules among three bulbs (A, B, and C) of equal volume. For each of the follow-ing states, determine the number of ways (W) that the state can be achieved, and use Boltzmann's equation to calculate the entropy of the state. (a) 2 molecules in bulb A (b) 2 molecules randomly distributed among bulbs A, B, and C
