    Minimal of free energy equation

    Homework Statement Show that the free energy, F=SUM(E_i*p_i)+T*SUM(p_i*ln(p_i)) is minimal when p_i=e^(-E_i/T)/SUM(e^(-E_i/T)) Where E is energy, T is temperature Homework Equations Nothing really The Attempt at a Solution So if I just try and find the derivative of the force I arrive at...
