The net rate of reaction v and net current density j are then: [Note 2] = = = The figure above plots various Gibbs energy curves as a function of the reaction coordinate ξ. The reaction coordinate is roughly a measure of distance, with the body of the electrode being on the left, the bulk solution being on the right.
In other words, the strain energy density function can be expressed uniquely in terms of the principal stretches or in terms of the invariants of the left Cauchy–Green deformation tensor or right Cauchy–Green deformation tensor and we have: For isotropic materials,
For rubber and biological materials, more sophisticated models are necessary. Such materials may exhibit a non-linear stress–strain behaviour at modest strains, or are elastic up to huge strains. These complex non-linear stress–strain behaviours need to be accommodated by specifically tailored strain-energy density functions.
The locus of these points (the inflection point within a G-x or G-c curve, Gibbs free energy as a function of composition) is known as the spinodal curve. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] [ 3 ] For compositions within this curve, infinitesimally small fluctuations in composition and density will lead to phase separation via spinodal decomposition .
Ragone plot showing specific energy versus specific power for various energy-storing devices. A Ragone plot (/ r ə ˈ ɡ oʊ n iː / rə-GOH-nee) [1] is a plot used for comparing the energy density of various energy-storing devices. On such a chart the values of specific energy (in W·h/kg) are plotted versus specific power (in W/kg).
The higher the energy density of the fuel, the more energy may be stored or transported for the same amount of volume. The energy of a fuel per unit mass is called its specific energy. The adjacent figure shows the gravimetric and volumetric energy density of some fuels and storage technologies (modified from the Gasoline article).
The Hildebrand solubility parameter is the square root of the cohesive energy density: δ = Δ H v − R T V m . {\displaystyle \delta ={\sqrt {\frac {\Delta H_{v}-RT}{V_{m}}}}.} The cohesive energy density is the amount of energy needed to completely remove a unit volume of molecules from their neighbours to infinite separation (an ideal gas ).
