By comparing (3.33) and (3.37) we obtain

In a similar way we obtain forH=f(S, p),F=f(T, V),G=f(T, p)

T
= V. (3.41)
3.4.3 Maxwell relations
By applying the equalities of mixed derivatives (3.26) to the Gibbs equations (3.33) through
(3.36), i.e. to the total differentials of the functionsU,H,F,G, we obtain the so-called Maxwell
relations

Maxwell relations, in particular (3.44) and (3.45), rank among the major thermodynamic rela-
tions. They are used to derive many other equations.
