The earliest written record of the Peierls transition was presented at the 1954 École de physique des Houches.These lecture notes (shown below) contain Rudolf Peierls' handwritten equations and figures, and can be viewed [3] in the library of the Institut Laue–Langevin, in Grenoble, France.
The definition of the Gibbs function is = + where H is the enthalpy defined by: = +. Taking differentials of each definition to find dH and dG, then using the fundamental thermodynamic relation (always true for reversible or irreversible processes): = where S is the entropy, V is volume, (minus sign due to reversibility, in which dU = 0: work other than pressure-volume may be done and is equal ...
Physical chemistry is the study of macroscopic and microscopic phenomena in chemical systems in terms of the principles, practices, and concepts of physics such as motion, energy, force, time, thermodynamics, quantum chemistry, statistical mechanics, analytical dynamics and chemical equilibria.
The Physical Chemistry WikiProject is about combining and coordinating the many efforts to improve all articles pertaining to physical chemistry and related subjects, by providing standards and guide where practical. This includes all chemical topics related to thermodynamics, equilibrium, quantum mechanics, statistical mechanics, reaction ...

In the above, we note that the stoichiometric number of a reactant is negative. Now when we know the extent, we can rearrange the equation and calculate the equilibrium amounts of B and C. n e q u i , i = ξ e q u i ν i + n i n i t i a l , i {\displaystyle n_{equi,i}=\xi _{equi}\nu _{i}+n_{initial,i}}
where ln denotes the natural logarithm, is the thermodynamic equilibrium constant, and R is the ideal gas constant.This equation is exact at any one temperature and all pressures, derived from the requirement that the Gibbs free energy of reaction be stationary in a state of chemical equilibrium.
