  Free energies and other thermodynamical quantities are investigated in
canonical and grand canonical ensembles of statistical mechanics involving
unstable states which are described by the generalized eigenstates with complex
energy eigenvalues in the conjugate space of Gel'fand triplet. The theory is
applied to the systems containing parabolic potential barriers (PPB's). The
entropy and energy productions from PPB systems are studied. An equilibrium for
a chemical process described by reactions $A+CB\rightleftarrows AC+B$ is also
discussed.
