Exercise 4.15
a.Show thatμiAi+PVi
b.Show thatμiUi+PVi−TSi

There are some equations similar to the Maxwell relations that apply to multicom-
ponent open systems. We begin with the Gibbs equation, Eq. (4.5-3):

dG−SdT+VdP+

∑c

i 1

μidni (4.5-13)

Using the Euler reciprocity relation, Eq. (B-13) of Appendix B,

Various similar equations can be derived.

Exercise 4.16
Verify Eq. (4.5-14) and Eq. (4.5-15).

The Partial Molar Quantities in a One-Component System


The equilibrium thermodynamic state of a simple one-component open system can be
specified byT,P, andn, the amount of the single component. This gives the differential
relation for a general extensive quantity,Y, in a one-component system:

The molar quantityYmis an intensive quantity. Because an intensive quantity cannot
depend on an extensive quantity,Ymdepends only onTandP. Therefore
