The most probable macrostate is the one with the highest number of microstates since all microstates are equally likely to occur.
Therefore, qA = qB = 3 is the most probable macrostate and its probability is: P = 100/462 = 0.2164 = 21.64%
The least probable macrostate is the one with the lowest number of microstates.
Therefore, qA = 0 and qB = 6 or vice-versa are the least probable with probability: P = 28/462 = 0.0606 = 6.06%.

1. Consider a system of two Einstein solids, A and B, each containing 4 oscillators, sharing a total of 4 units of energy. Assume that the solids are weakly coupled, and that the total energy is fixed. a. How many different macrostates are available to this system? b. How many different microstates are available to this system? c. Assuming that this system is in thermal equilibrium, what is the probability of finding all the energy in solid A? d. What...
1. Consider a system of two Einstein solids, A and B, each containing 10 oscillators, sharing a total of 20 units of energy. Assume that the solids are in thermal contact (and can, therefore, exchange energy units) and that the total energy is fixed. How many different macrostates are available to this system? a. b. How many different microstates are available to this system? Assuming that this system is in thermal equilibrium, what is the probability of finding all the...
Using matlab, evaluate the following system:Consider two Einstein solids \(A\) and \(B\) that can exchange energy (but not oscillators/particles) with one another but the combined composite system is isolated from the surroundings. Suppose systems \(A\) and \(B\) have \(N_{A}\) and \(N_{B}\) oscillators, and \(q_{A}\) and \(q_{B}\) units of energy respectively. The total number of microstates for this macrostate for the macrostate \(N_{A}, N_{B}, q, q_{A}\) is given by$$ \Omega\left(N_{A}, N_{B}, q, q_{A}\right)=\Omega\left(N_{A}, q_{A}\right) \Omega\left(N_{B}, q_{B}\right) $$where$$ \Omega\left(N_{i}, q_{i}\right)=\frac{\left(q_{i}+N_{i}-1\right) !}{q_{i} !\left(N_{i}-1\right)...

10. Write a one-page summary of the attached paper? INTRODUCTION Many problems can develop in activated sludge operation that adversely affect effluent quality with origins in the engineering, hydraulic and microbiological components of the process. The real "heart" of the activated sludge system is the development and maintenance of a mixed microbial culture (activated sludge) that treats wastewater and which can be managed. One definition of a wastewater treatment plant operator is a "bug farmer", one who controls the aeration...
