For particles following the Maxwell-Boltzmann distribution, the probability of occupation of a state with energy (E_i) is proportional to (e^{-E_i/k_BT}). The energies of the three states are: [ E_1 = 0, \quad E_2 = k_B T, \quad E_3 = 4 k_B T ] The partition function (Z) is: [ Z = e^{-E_1/k_BT} + e^{-E_2/k_BT} + e^{-E_3/k_BT} = e^{0}
