  2. Gibbs–Helmholtz equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gibbs–Helmholtz_equation

    The definition of the Gibbs function is = + where H is the enthalpy defined by: = +. Taking differentials of each definition to find dH and dG, then using the fundamental thermodynamic relation (always true for reversible or irreversible processes): = where S is the entropy, V is volume, (minus sign due to reversibility, in which dU = 0: work other than pressure-volume may be done and is equal ...

  3. Gibbs free energy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gibbs_free_energy

    Its symbol is Δ f G˚. All elements in their standard states (diatomic oxygen gas, graphite, etc.) have standard Gibbs free energy change of formation equal to zero, as there is no change involved. Δ f G = Δ f G˚ + RT ln Q f, where Q f is the reaction quotient. At equilibrium, Δ f G = 0, and Q f = K, so the equation becomes Δ f G˚ = − ...

  4. Exergonic reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exergonic_reaction

    The change of Gibbs free energy (ΔG) in an exergonic reaction (that takes place at constant pressure and temperature) is negative because energy is lost (2). In chemical thermodynamics, an exergonic reaction is a chemical reaction where the change in the free energy is negative (there is a net release of free energy). [1]

  5. Heat transfer coefficient - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_transfer_coefficient

    Although convective heat transfer can be derived analytically through dimensional analysis, exact analysis of the boundary layer, approximate integral analysis of the boundary layer and analogies between energy and momentum transfer, these analytic approaches may not offer practical solutions to all problems when there are no mathematical models applicable.

  6. Standard enthalpy of formation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_enthalpy_of_formation

    For many substances, the formation reaction may be considered as the sum of a number of simpler reactions, either real or fictitious. The enthalpy of reaction can then be analyzed by applying Hess' law, which states that the sum of the enthalpy changes for a number of individual reaction steps equals the enthalpy change of the overall reaction.

  7. Ellingham diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ellingham_diagram

    For comparison of different reactions, all values of ΔG refer to the reaction of the same quantity of oxygen, chosen as one mole O (1 ⁄ 2 mol O 2) by some authors [2] and one mole O 2 by others. [3] The diagram shown refers to 1 mole O 2, so that e.g. the line for the oxidation of chromium shows ΔG for the reaction 4 ⁄ 3 Cr(s) + O 2 (g ...

  8. Hammond's postulate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hammond's_postulate

    While the rate of a reaction depends just on the activation energy (often represented in organic chemistry as ΔG ‡ “delta G double dagger”), the final ratios of products in chemical equilibrium depends only on the standard free-energy change ΔG (“delta G”). The ratio of the final products at equilibrium corresponds directly with the ...

  9. Damköhler numbers - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Damköhler_numbers

    The residence time scale can take the form of a convection time scale, such as volumetric flow rate through the reactor for continuous (plug flow or stirred tank) or semibatch chemical processes: D a I = reaction rate convective mass transport rate {\displaystyle \mathrm {Da_{\mathrm {I} }} ={\frac {\text{reaction rate}}{\text{convective mass ...
