Chapter 6.7, Problem 46P

Equations 6.92 and 6.93 for the entropy and chemical potential involve the logarithm of the quantity V Z int / N υ Q . Is this logarithm normally positive or negative? Plug in some numbers for an ordinary gas and discuss.

A highly non-ideal gas has an entropy given by S=aNU/V, where the internal energy, U is a function of T.Find the pressure, the expression for the heat capacity at constant volume, and the chemical potential.
Equations 6.92 and 6.93 (See attached) for the entropy and chemical potential involve the logarithm of the quantity V Zint!N vQ. Is this logarithm normally positive or negative? Plug in some numbers for an ordinary gas and discuss.
For one component gas that is confined in a box with volume V. We can get the entropy of the gas as S= Nk, in- where N is the total a² number of atoms, a is the radius of the atom. Can you guess how it is obtained?
