Question: For a certain system, the thermodynamic energy U is given as a function of S,V,and n by U = U(S,V,n) = Kn 5/3 V 2/3
For a certain system, the thermodynamic energy U is given as a function of S,V,and n by
U = U(S,V,n) = Kn5/3V−2/3e2S/3nR,
where S is the entropy, V is the volume, n is the number of moles, K is a constant, and R is the gas constant.
