  3. Phase diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phase_diagram

    A simple example diagram with hypothetical components 1 and 2 in a non-azeotropic mixture is shown at right. The fact that there are two separate curved lines joining the boiling points of the pure components means that the vapor composition is usually not the same as the liquid composition the vapor is in equilibrium with.

  4. Kirchhoff's law of thermal radiation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kirchhoff's_law_of_thermal...

    At thermal equilibrium, the Hohlraum is filled with a distribution of EM waves at thermal equilibrium with the walls of the Hohlraum. Next, he considered connecting the Hohlraum to a single small resonator, such as Hertzian resonators. The resonator reaches a certain form of thermal equilibrium with the Hohlraum, when the spectral input into ...

  5. Quasistatic process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quasistatic_process

    An example of this is quasi-static expansion of a mixture of hydrogen and oxygen gas, where the volume of the system changes so slowly that the pressure remains uniform throughout the system at each instant of time during the process. [2] Such an idealized process is a succession of physical equilibrium states, characterized by infinite ...

  6. Equilibrium thermodynamics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equilibrium_thermodynamics

    A central aim in equilibrium thermodynamics is: given a system in a well-defined initial state of thermodynamic equilibrium, subject to accurately specified constraints, to calculate, when the constraints are changed by an externally imposed intervention, what the state of the system will be once it has reached a new equilibrium. An equilibrium ...

  7. Dynamic equilibrium (chemistry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamic_equilibrium...

    At equilibrium, the rate of transfer of CO 2 from the gas to the liquid phase is equal to the rate from liquid to gas. In this case, the equilibrium concentration of CO 2 in the liquid is given by Henry's law, which states that the solubility of a gas in a liquid is directly proportional to the partial pressure of that gas above the liquid. [1]

  8. Thermodynamic equilibrium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermodynamic_equilibrium

    Classical thermodynamics deals with states of dynamic equilibrium.The state of a system at thermodynamic equilibrium is the one for which some thermodynamic potential is minimized (in the absence of an applied voltage), [2] or for which the entropy (S) is maximized, for specified conditions.

  9. File:Punctuated Equilibrium.pdf - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/.../File:Punctuated_Equilibrium.pdf

    English: Alternative explanations of the punctuated equilibrium pattern of evolution observed in the fossil record. Both macromutation and relatively rapid episodes of gradual evolution by natural selection could give the effect of apparently instantaneous change, since 10,000 years barely registers in the fossil record.
