Maxwell-boltzmann statistics is always a great word to know.
So is energy level. Does it mean:
the ability of a substance to flow; a measure of this ability, the reciprocal of the coefficient of viscosity
a quantized state in which matter may exist, having constant energy and separated from others in the series by finite quantities of energy
