Ideal gas Helmholtz energy function

From equations

$Q_{NVT}={\frac {1}{N!}}\left({\frac {V}{\Lambda ^{3}}}\right)^{N}$

for the canonical ensemble partition function for an ideal gas, and

$\left.A\right.=-k_{B}T\ln Q_{NVT}$

for the Helmholtz energy function, one has

$A=-k_{B}T\left(\ln {\frac {1}{N!}}+N\ln {\frac {V}{\Lambda ^{3}}}\right)$

$=-k_{B}T\left(-\ln N!+N\ln {\frac {VN}{\Lambda ^{3}N}}\right)$

one arrives at

$A=Nk_{B}T\left(\ln \Lambda ^{3}\rho -1\right)$
