 Solution

Put $\beta =1/(k_{B}T)$ and define the thermal de Broglie wavelength of species $\alpha$ byIgnoring the internal degrees of freedom as stipulated, each molecule's translational canonical partition function is $V/{\lambda }_{\alpha }^3$. The two species do not interact, so their partition functions multiply; the treatment of indistinguishable particles requires a separate factorial for each species, not a factorial of the total particle number. ThusUsing $F=-k_{B}T\ln Z$ and Stirling's approximation gives the extensive Helmholtz free energyThese are ideal gas expressions, valid for $n_{\alpha }{\lambda }_{\alpha }^3\ll 1$, with $n_{\alpha }=N_{\alpha }/V$. The energy zero has been chosen so that separated CO and oxygen molecules have zero internal reference energy.
