Problem 32P Find an expression for the entropy of the two-dimensional ideal gas considered in below Problem. Express your result in terms of U, A, and N. Problem: Consider an ideal monatomic gas that lives in a two-dimensional universe (flatland), occupying an area A instead of a volume V. By followi

Problem 35P According to the Sackur-Tetrode equation, the entropy of a monatomic ideal gas can become negative when its temperature (and hence its energy) is sufficiently low. Of course this is absurd, so the Sackur-Tetrode equation must be invalid at very low temperatures. Suppose you start with a s

Problem 11P Consider a gas of hard spheres, which do not interact at all unless their separation distance is less than r0, in which case then interaction energy is infinite. Sketch the Mayer f-function for this gas, and compute the second virial coefficient. Discuss the result briefly.
