For a multi-component system, the term chemical potential is equivalent to the ___________________?
Correct answer: D. Partial molar free energy
- A. Molal concentration difference
- B. Molar free energy
- C. Molar free energy change
- D. Partial molar free energy
Explanation
Chemical potential is defined as the partial molar Gibbs free energy, mu_i = (partial G/partial n_i) at constant temperature, pressure, and other component amounts. Ordinary molar free energy applies to a pure substance, not one component in a mixture.
