Free energies are state properties of a system
T
The Gibbs free energy of a system is a portion of the energy in the system available for conversion to work
F
For a reversible phase change at constant T&P, there is no change in Gibbs free energy (ie ΔG=0)
T
When a closed system approaches to equilibrium at const T&P, the free energies G and A decrease until material equilibrium is reached.
F…G decreases but not A
The beaker is to be filled with a binary water-ethanol solution at constant T&P. The chemical potential of water in the beaker will remain the same as the beaker is gradually filled with the solution
T
Chemical potential of 1 mol of water vapor at (100 °C, 1 atm) is the same as the chemical potential of 10 mol of liquid water at the same T and P
