avogadro's number in Boltzmann Equation
When do we incorporate Avogadro's number in Boltzmann Equation?

Boltzmann's constant multiplied by Avogadro's number gives the gas constant (the one utilizing J/mol*K), therefore you use the gas constant in the Boltzmann's Equation when relating it to moles of a substance.

You use avogadros number when you have a mole of a certain molecule. This would make degeneracy raised to the power of avogadros number to account for each of the positions on each molecule.

Sometimes when I do this I get an error on my calculator that says "overflow", does anyone know how to fix this?

Unfortunately, that means your calculator cannot compute such a large number. I do not think there is a way around that. Apparently calculators cannot handle numbers above 9.99999999 x 10^99.
