The Fermi temperature for metal is approximately the temperature at which molecules in a classical ideal gas would have the same kinetic energy as the fastest-moving electron in the metal. Consider Fermi energy Ef = k•Tf where Tf is the Fermi temperature, and calculate the occupancy probability for a state with energy E = 3Ef.
