Abstract

The Boltzmann distributions is what we would call the first step in what is today Statistical Mechanics, it describes the mean energy of a system that is capable of interacting via the exchange of energy with a thermal reservoir, this leads us to see the thermodynamical properties of a system as a set of mean values reign by this distribution, rather than set values, however in this apparent random exchange of energy between a system and a heat reservoir, called a canonical ensemble, there are certain deterministic characteristics that we will explore with the aid of a computer program developed in Python language in this article.
