Boltzmann Factor Formula
Formula
P(E) ∝ exp(-ΔE / kT)
Where:
- • P(E) = probability
- • ΔE = energy difference
- • k = Boltzmann constant
- • T = temperature
Interpretation
- • Factor < 1: Higher energy state less likely
- • Factor = 1: Equal probability
- • Factor > 1: Higher energy state more likely
- • kT ≈ 0.026 eV at 300 K
