The Gibbs Free Energy
摘要
This chapter introduces the Gibbs free energyGibbs free energy and its relevance for the direction of phase changesPhase changes and reactions. The dependence of Gibbs free energyGibbs free energy on temperature and pressurePressure is presented and used to derive the (Clausius-)Clapeyron relation. One-component phase diagramsPhase diagrams and Gibb’s phase rule are presented.
