Exercise : Temperature dependence of Gibbs Free Energy
Exercise
Supercooled liquid water at – 50℃ will freeze adiabatically. ∆G, ∆S of this change?
- Final state might be a mixture of ice and liquid water.
- Liquid water and ice can coexist only at the melting point T, 0℃
Let’s set the fraction of ice at the final state (x).Split the process into
1) ∆G
2) ∆S
