Calculating W

Postby Reva Patel 2F » Fri Mar 15, 2024 9:15 pm

How do we calculate W for a situation where there are 3 atoms in a flask with 2 possible states? Is there a formula for these types of microstate questions?

Hi! it is the number of states to the power of number of atoms- it would be 2^(3)
