ABSTRACT

Due to the importance of the chemical potential in thermodynamics, we recapitulate here some of the equations related to it. Comparison of Equations 4.19 and 6.2 written for the Gibbs function G shows that what was defined as the chemical potential by Equation 4.19 is shown by Equation 6.2 to be the partial molar Gibbs energy. https://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML"> μ i ≡ g ¯ i = ( ∂ G ∂ n i ) P , T ,   n   j ≠ i https://s3-euw1-ap-pe-df-pch-content-public-p.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/9781315399065/5df30985-80c1-4e11-9533-10c20ed2604c/content/equ07_01.tif" xmlns:xlink="https://www.w3.org/1999/xlink"/>
