The Ideal Gas Behavior is in Fact Nothing, But a Macroscopic Quantum Mechanical Manifestation
arXiv:0902.2636
Abstract
This article mainly consists in the quantum mechanical study of an adiabatically compressed particle, in an infinitely high well, which we conjecture, can be considered as the basis of an ideal gas. Thus we prove that, all the compression energy is, as may be expected, transformed into extra kinetic energy of the particle. This result frames a quantum mechanical definition of an ideal gas. It further helps the elucidation of a paradox.
