When dealing with electron emission in metals, this equation replaces the Richardson Equation.
When dealing with electron emission in metals, this equation replaces the Richardson Equation. One equation derived from this equation involves the densities of ionization states in terms of the degeneracy and energies of the states and is named for Langmuir and Saha. By introducing a 1/N! (one over N factorial) term to account for the indistinguishability of identical particles, this equation can be used to resolve the Gibbs paradox. This equation expresses energy as a function of only volume and entropy, which is proportional to the heat capacity raised to the two-thirds power and the thermal wavelength to the one third power. It can be experimentally confirmed by raising a liquid from near absolute zero to boiling and adding the heat transfer required for this process to the entropy of vaporization. For 10 points, identify this doubly-eponymous equation which gives the entropy for a monatomic ideal gas.
