Consider that a two-dimensional system of area A is filled with N number of triatomic molecules. A triatomic molecule will have several degrees of freedom. For simplicity, assume that each molecule of mass m to be a Harmonic oscillator, which has two characteristic frequencies, w₁ and w₂, respectively. Considering only translational and vibrational degrees of freedom, calculate the partition function of the system. Then calculate the entropy and the two-dimensional pressure of this system.
