Thermodynamicsandstatisticalphysicsstudythephysicalproperties(mec-
nical, thermal, magnetic, optical, electrical, etc.) of the
macroscopic system. The tasks and objects of study in
thermodynamics and statistical physics are identical. However, the
methods of investigationinto macroscopicsystems are di?erent.
Thermodynamics is a phenomenological theory. It studies the
properties of bodies, without going into the mechanism of
phenomena, i.e., not taking into consideration the relation between
the internal structure of substance and phenomena, it generalizes
experimental results. As a result of such a g- eralization,
postulates and laws of thermodynamics made their appearance. These
laws make it possible to ?nd general relations between the di?erent
properties of macroscopic systems and the physical events occurring
in them. Statisticalphysicsisa microscopic
