A system has 8 spin 1/2 , distinguishable particles. Explain how many macrostates will the system have. Also, calculate the degeneracy of each macrostate. What is the total number of microstates the above mentioned system has? If each microstate is equally probable. What will be the probability for the system to exist in any one microstate? Please solve this question. I am a bit confused.

    dear, degeneracy depends on spin (by the formula 2s+1 where s is spin) so please check what is the spin of particles?

    eduncle-logo-app

    spin is 1/2

    eduncle-logo-app

    spin is 1/2.. so no of states are 4 and each state has degeneracy 2...

    dear spin half particle, it means follow fermion and follow Pauli Principle so don't repeat no and fill one by one.....

  • Deepanshu Chaudhary

    How maam can you show? The particle have 1/2 spin

    eduncle-logo-app

    then dear fill it one by one......and dont repeat

    eduncle-logo-app

    bcoz they are spin half

    dear first clearify that particle have integer spin or half integer spin.

    no of marcro state will be 4 i think

    It would be helpful if you show the working
