1. S =


2. k =


3. W =





A. A fraction indicating the probability of obtaining a result.


B. A random number.


C. The number of ways the state may be obtained.


D. The universal gas constant divided by Avogadro's number.


E. The number of moles.


F. A correction factor for states being indistinguishable.


G. The absolute entropy.


H. The work/mole.

Boltzmann's formula is usually written as S = k ln W. Match each symbol in this equation with its meaning.
The Absolute Entropy equals The Universal Gas Constant Divided By Avogadro's Number times the logarithm of The Number Of Ways The State May Be Obtained.
