Randall D. Knight β A Macroscopic Description of Matter: Problem 24
The solar corona is a very hot atmosphere surrounding the visible surface of the sun. X-ray emissions from the corona show that its temperature is about \( 2 \times 10^6 \text{ K} \). The gas pressure in the corona is about \( 0.03 \text{ Pa} \). Estimate the number density of particles in the solar corona.
