Physics · Statistical Mechanics
Consider a diatomic molecule with an infinite number of equally spaced non-degenerate energy levels. The spacing between any two adjacent levels is ε and the ground state energy is zero. What is the single particle partition function Z?
- 1Z = 1 - εkBT1 + εkBT
- 2Z = 11 - e-2ε/(kBT)
- 3Z = 11 - e-ε/(kBT)✓
- 4Z = 11 - εkBT
Correct answer
Z = 11 - e-ε/(kBT)
