使用對數公式

${\displaystyle \log _{b}2={\frac {\ln 2}{\ln b}}.}$

可以求出log2，它約為：（OEIS數列A007524）

${\displaystyle \log _{10}2\approx 0.301029995663981195}$。

數學家理查德·施羅培爾（英語：Richard Schroeppel）在1972年證明，不尋常數的自然密度等於 ${\displaystyle \ln 2}$。換言之，若 ${\displaystyle u(n)}$ 表示不大於 ${\displaystyle n}$ 的自然數之中，有多少個數 ${\displaystyle a}$ 具有大於 ${\displaystyle {\sqrt {a}}}$ 的質因數，則有：

${\displaystyle \lim _{n\rightarrow \infty }{\frac {u(n)}{n}}=\ln(2)=0.693147\dots \,.}$

公式

${\displaystyle \sum _{n=1}^{\infty }{\frac {(-1)^{n+1}}{n}}=\sum _{n=0}^{\infty }{\frac {1}{(2n+1)(2n+2)}}=\ln 2.}$

${\displaystyle \sum _{n=0}^{\infty }{\frac {(-1)^{n}}{(n+1)(n+2)}}=2\ln 2-1.}$

${\displaystyle \sum _{n=1}^{\infty }{\frac {1}{n(4n^{2}-1)}}=2\ln 2-1.}$

${\displaystyle \sum _{n=1}^{\infty }{\frac {(-1)^{n}}{n(4n^{2}-1)}}=\ln 2-1.}$

${\displaystyle \sum _{n=1}^{\infty }{\frac {(-1)^{n}}{n(9n^{2}-1)}}=2\ln 2-{\frac {3}{2}}.}$

${\displaystyle \sum _{n=2}^{\infty }{\frac {1}{2^{n}}}[\zeta (n)-1]=\ln 2-{\frac {1}{2}}.}$

${\displaystyle \sum _{n=1}^{\infty }{\frac {1}{2^{2n}(2n+1)}}\zeta (2n)={\frac {1}{2}}(1-\ln 2).}$

${\displaystyle \ln 2={\frac {2}{3}}\sum _{k\geq 0}{\frac {1}{(2k+1)9^{k}}}.}$（基於反雙曲函數，可參見計算自然對數的級數。）

${\displaystyle \int _{0}^{\frac {\pi }{3}}\tan xdx=2\int _{0}^{\frac {\pi }{4}}\tan xdx=\ln 2}$
