Physics · Statistical Thermodynamics
At a given temperature, an atom accesses 2 S 1/2 , 2 P 1/2 and 2 P 3/2 atomic states with energies 0 k B T, 0.5 k B T and 0.5 k B T, respectively. The fraction of atoms in the P states is:
- 12 e -0.5 1 + 2 e -0.5
- 2e -0.5 1 + 4 e -0.5
- 3e -0.5 1 + 2 e -0.5
- 43 e -0.5 1 + 3 e -0.5✓
Correct answer
3 e -0.5 1 + 3 e -0.5
