Classical case: Maxwell-Boltzmann distribution
Take an individual system in a canonical ensemble as
one single classical ideal gas particle. The probability of
finding the particle in a specific single-particle level with
energy Er (in this case also the energy level of the
system) is given by the canonical probability distribution
