A population inversion for two energy level is often described by assigning a negativeKelvin temperature to the system. What negative temperature would describe asystem in which the population of the upper energy level exceeds that of the lowerenergy level by 10% and the energy difference between two levels is 2.1 eV?

In the canonical ensemble, we control the variables T, p, and N, and the fundamental function is the Gibbs free energy (G). But if we control T, p, and μ, then we will have a different fundamental function, Z (This is the case for cells that often regulate their temperature, pressure, and chemical potentials to maintain equilibrium). Which of the below options should the Z function equal? H - TS - μN H + TS + μN H + TS - μN G + μN F - pV - μN -H + TS + μN

My physics class has turned to online due to the COVID-19 and I am having trouble with some of the word problems my teacher gave me to work on. She presented me with: I am contemplating a career change. If I had 500g of stolen gold jewelry, how much energy would I have to add to it to melt it (so that it was not longer recognizable)? Pretend that it is pure gold. Would you be able to show me how to accomplish this problem so I can see the steps? Thank you for your time. John Payton
As an alternative to Equation 42.1, another useful model for the potential energy of a diatomic molecule is the Morse potential U(r)=B[ea(rr0)1]2 where B, a, and r0 are parameters used to adjust the shape of the potential and its depth.

(b) What is the depth of the potential well, defined as the difference in energy between the potentials minimum value and its asymptote as r approaches infinity? (c) If is the reduced mass of the system of two nuclei and assuming the potential is nearly parabolic about the well minimum, what is the vibrational frequency of the diatomic molecule in its ground state? (d) What amount of energy needs to be supplied to the ground-state molecule to separate the two nuclei to infinity?
