Molecules are consist of several electronic energy levels. The difference between ground state and excited state is quite high ( E>> KT). So at room temperature all the molecules occupied ground energy level. On the other hand the contribution to electronic partition function due to higher excited state become insignificant.

Statistical Mechanics: Explain the purpose of a partition function in a way that a general chemistry student would understand. Then, discuss what the translation, vibration, and rotation are in terms of what is happening to a molecule. Finally, say why they are important for a partition function.
