Why changes happen in a thermodynamic system?
To what extend the change occurs? To the extend where there is no difference in the
potential between the parts of a system or between the system and its environment.
Give examples?
In the previous lectures you learned what is Gibbs free energy or G. What is this by the
way? Give definition? Write equation(s) for Gibbs free energy?

is established.
When the amount of heat supplied to H2O(s) + H2O(l) system in equilibrium is not
enough to melt all ice, only some ice will melt, consuming the heat and reducing the T
back to 0 C, at which point a new equilibrium between the changed amounts of H2O(s)
and H2O(l) will be established.
Suppose we have 10 mol of H2O(s) and 10 mol of H2O(l) in equilibrium. Now, we supply
heat amount enough to melt just 1 mol of H2O(l). The transition we have is:
1 2 1 2 ()
= () =0
(since the system is at equilibrium, i.e. G always stays at min, hence G does not change,
its gradient is 0)
= + ( )
Since at the equilibrium () = , = ( )+ () = . This
means that in equilibrium G’ of the system is independent of the proportions of the ice
and liquid phase present.
The molar Gibbs free energies of H2O in liquid and solid phase are called chemical
potentials of H2O in the corresponding phases, i.e.
() = , ( ) = , ( ) = .
In terms of Gibbs free energy of the whole system, chemical potential of i component is
partial derivative of G’ by the number of mole of the i component:
=
( ) , ,
For one component system the chemical potential of the component equals the increase
in the value of G’ which occurs when 1 mole of the component is added to the system at
P, T = const. Then the partial differential becomes full differential, i.e.

Let’s now go back to different temperatures and try to understand phase behavior of
water at different T based on the analysis of Gibbs free energy.
At T > 0C ice melts. An
P = 1 atm
equilibrium state of H2O at T >
G
0C is liquid water. And since
this is the equilibrium state,
then at T > 0C minimal G’
corresponds to G(l). Thus G(l) <
G(s) or < . This
(s) means, H2O molecules have
higher potential in (s) than in (l)
and they escape (s) moving
into (l).
(l)
Analyze situation at T < 0C, P =
1atm?
P = 1 atm P = 1 atm

Can we relate other thermodynamic functions to G’ and analyze how they behave at
equilibrium? Yes. Let’s do it on the blackboard.
P = 1 atm P = 1 atm
H S (l)
(l)
Hm Sm
(s) (s)
All previous discussion thus shows that it is possible to maintain the equilibrium between
(s) and (l) H2O not only at 0 C and 1 atm, but also at different T and P. For example,
increase of P favors liquid H2O but decrease of T favors solid H2O. Thus if we
simultaneously reduce T and increase P, we may expect that at some P and T, different
from 1 atm and 0 C, both (l) and (s) H2O will be at the equilibrium again.
Plot G as a function of both T and
P in one graph.

Phase diagrams of Binary Systems

Phase diagrams
• Phase diagrams may come in different “flavors”
• Unary: P vs. T
• Binary: chemistry vs. T OR P
• Ternary: composition (T + P fix!)
F + P' = C' + 2

Clausius-Clapeyron & Le Chatelier's principle:
If a chemical system at equilibrium experiences
dT T a change in concentration, temperature,

dP equilibrium shifts to counteract the imposed
change and a new equilibrium is established

The complete diagram of a two-component system is 3-D with the coordinates: T, P, composition.
In most cases it is sufficient to present a binary phase diagram as a constant pressure section
(isobaric section) of the 3-D diagram. The constant pressure is normally chosen at 1 atm, and the
coordinates are T and composition.
The easiest example of such binary phase diagram is an isomorphous phase diagram.
Isomorphous phase diagram is a phase diagram in which components display both unlimited liquid
and unlimited solid solubility.
In these systems only a single type of crystal structure exists for all compositions of the
components (alloy) and the system is therefore called isomorphous system.

+ =
C C0 Cl
Solution of this system gives us the lever rule:
= =
Cu and Ni are mutually soluble in solid state (complete solubility) because they both
have same fcc structures, nearly identical atomic radii and electronegativities, and
similar valences. With these many similarities elements usually form isomorphous
systems.
Phase Diagrams with Eutecticum
The simplest kind of system with two solid phases is called a eutectic system.
A eutectic system contains two solid phases at low temperature. These phases may have different
crystal structures or same crystal structure with different lattice parameters. Examples: Pb(fcc) and
Sn(tetragonal) – solders, Fe(bcc) and C(hexagonal) – cast irons, Al(fcc) and Si(cubic) – cast
aluminum alloys

Homework:
1. Build a phase diagram of Pb-Sn in FactSage. On the phase diagram indicate melting points of
both components, liquidus line, solidus line, phases in equilibrium, eutecticum. Using the phase
diagram calculate the composition and temperature of eutecticum. For T=498 K and mole
fraction of Pb in the system 0.67 calculate the composition and the relative amounts of phases
in equilibrium.
2. Plot one-component phase diagrams of water, CO2 and iron in the vicinity of their triple points.
