This constant is used in simple gas thermodynamics
This constant is used in simple gas thermodynamics to find the pressure of a gas, by dividing volume by the product of the number of molecules of gas, the temperature, and it. The average energy per degree of freedom equals one-half the product of this constant with the temperature of a substance. Entropy can be defined as this constant multiplied by the natural logarithm of the number of microstates consistent with the given macrostate. Identify this constant utilized in thermodynamics, commonly denoted k-sub-B and named after an Austrian physicist crucial in developing the field of statistical thermodynamics.
