  2. Gibbs–Helmholtz equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gibbs–Helmholtz_equation

    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 ...

  3. Propagation of uncertainty - Wikipedia

    Any non-linear differentiable function, (,), of two variables, and , can be expanded as + +. If we take the variance on both sides and use the formula [11] for the variance of a linear combination of variables ⁡ (+) = ⁡ + ⁡ + ⁡ (,), then we obtain | | + | | +, where is the standard deviation of the function , is the standard deviation of , is the standard deviation of and = is the ...

  4. Van 't Hoff equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Van_'t_Hoff_equation

    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.

  6. Extent of reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extent_of_reaction

    [1] The change in the extent of reaction is then defined as [2] [3] = where denotes the number of moles of the reactant or product and is the stoichiometric number [4] of the reactant or product. Although less common, we see from this expression that since the stoichiometric number can either be considered to be dimensionless or to have units ...

  7. Activity coefficient - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Activity_coefficient

    In thermodynamics, an activity coefficient is a factor used to account for deviation of a mixture of chemical substances from ideal behaviour. [1] In an ideal mixture, the microscopic interactions between each pair of chemical species are the same (or macroscopically equivalent, the enthalpy change of solution and volume variation in mixing is zero) and, as a result, properties of the mixtures ...

  8. Variational method (quantum mechanics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Variational_method...

    This allows calculating approximate wavefunctions such as molecular orbitals. [1] The basis for this method is the variational principle. [2] [3] The method consists of choosing a "trial wavefunction" depending on one or more parameters, and finding the values of these parameters for which the expectation value of the energy is the lowest possible.

  9. Debye–Hückel theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Debye–Hückel_theory

    Going towards high dilutions good results have been found using liquid membrane cells, it has been possible to investigate aqueous media 10 −4 M and it has been found that for 1:1 electrolytes (as NaCl or KCl) the Debye–Hückel equation is totally correct, but for 2:2 or 3:2 electrolytes it is possible to find negative deviation from the ...
