(a)
Interpretation:
The number of arrangement for the distribution of two quanta of energy among three atoms has to be determined.
Concept Introduction:
The Bose-Einstein Statistics states that the particles are indistinguishable and the unknown number of particles are occupied in the given energy state. The particles having the integral spin obey this statistics such as hydrogen, deuterium, nitrogen, and photons. The special name for the particles that obey the Bose-Einstein Statistics is bosons.
(b)
Interpretation:
The number of arrangement for the distribution of two quanta of energy among six atoms has to be determined.
Concept Introduction:
Same as part (a).
(c)
Interpretation:
The direction in which the quanta of energy displace has to be determined.
Concept Introduction:
Same as part (a).

Chemical Principles: The Quest for Insight
- Define the following terms: potential energy, kinetic energy, path-dependent function, state function, system, surroundings.arrow_forwardA 1.00 mol sample of H2 is carefully warmed from 22 K to 40 K at constant volume. a What is the expected heat capacity of the hydrogen? b What is q for the process?arrow_forwardWould the amount of heat absorbed by the dissolution in Example 5.6 appear greater, lesser, or remain the same if the heat capacity of the calorimeter were taken into account? Explain your answer.arrow_forward
- • define state functions and explain their importance.arrow_forwardPrepare a table identifying several energy transitions that take place during the typical operation of an automobile.arrow_forwardDescribe the interconversions of potential and kinetic energy in a moving pendulum. A moving pendulum eventually comes to rest. Has the energy been lost? If not, what has happened to it?arrow_forward
- Is the following reaction the appropriate one to use in determining the enthalpy of formation of methane, CH4(g)? Why or why not? C(g)+4H(g)CH4(g)arrow_forwardUnder what circumstances is the heat of a process equal to the enthalpy change for the process?arrow_forward9.42 Why is enthalpy generally more useful than internal energy in the thermodynamics of real world systems?arrow_forward
- 9.41 Under what conditions does the enthalpy change equal the heat of a process?arrow_forwardFind the enthalpies of the combustion reactions for methane through n-octane. Plot them versus the number of carbon atoms in the molecule, and determine an equation that gives H for the combustion of a given hydrocarbon. Then use the equation to predict the enthalpy of combustion for n-C12H26 and compare it to experimental values.arrow_forward
