1. Determine the Helmholtz free energy (Tdependent) of a two state system. Let one state have...
3. [10 marks] We've covered the definition of Gibbs free energy, Helmholtz free energy, entropy, and enthalpy. There is also something called their fundamental equations. a) [8 marks] Use online resources and your peers to determine the total differential form of each of these terms. For example, if we're looking at Gibbs free energy, defined as G = H – TS, then determine what dG would be. b) [2 marks] Why is it useful to use this form? c) [+2...
Finding conditions for Helmholtz free energy
5.8. The steps in the strategy for finding conditions for equilibrium are: a) Write an expression for the change in entropy of the system when it is taken through an arbitrary process. (b) Write the isolation constraints in differential form. (c) Use the isolation constraints to eliminate dependent variables in the expression for the entropy. (a) Collect terms. (e) Set the coefficients of each differential equal to zero. () Solve these equations for the...

Consider an insulated container of volume V2. N ideal gas molecules are initially confined within a sub-volume (V1) by a piston and the remaining volume V2 - Viis in vacuum. Let T., P., U1, S1, A1, H1, and G1 be the temperature, pressure, internal energy, entropy, Helmholtz free energy, enthalpy, and Gibbs free energy of the ideal gas at this state, respectively. Now, imagine that the piston is removed so that the gas has volume V2. After some time...
