The criterion for equilibrium at constant temperature and pressure is the change in the integral molar free energy of the solution, i.e.
for an infinitesimal process and |
|
for a finite process
Where is change in integral molar free energy
At constant temperature and pressure when , a process occurs spontaneously. For an isothermal chemical reaction say , where J is activity quotient and is the standard free energy change. At equilibrium
, where K is equilibrium constant. |
