APPLICATION O F GIBBS AKD GIBBS-DUHEM EQUATIONS TO TERNARY ASD MULTICOMPONENT SYSTEMS BY SEV A. GOKCEX Contribution from the University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia, Penna. Received June 29, 1969

A simple method of application of the Gibbs equation for the calculation of partial molar properties of components in ternary and multicomponent systems, from the known partial molar property of one component, is presented. It is also shown that Wagner’s, SlcKay’s and Schuhmann’s equations for the calculation of thermodynamic properties of ternary systems may be rederived in a systematic and concise manner either from the Gibbs free energy function or the Gibbs-Duhcm equation, and thnt Wagner‘s and Schuhmann’s methods consist of the integration of the same cross differential equation along the same path. I n addition, these methods are extended to multicomponent systems.

The Gibbs-Duhem equation has been used for deriving the partial molar properties of ternary and multicomponent systenis from the experzmental data The preceding relationship is also applicable to o n the partial molar propertg of one ~ o m p o n e n t . ‘ - ~ the implicit function (Sn, J , y) = 0.

If 3-i. is a property that cannot be as however, first differentiated the Gibbs-Duhem equation for a ternarg system and then integrated conveniently measurable as m, 5 and g J it can be it to obtain the appropriate equations for the obtained by integrating either eq. 2 or 4, whichpartial molar properties. The purpose of this paper ever is best suited to the available data. Equations 2 and 4,usually called cross differenis (a, to present a simple method of application of the Gibbs :Lnd Gibbs-Duhem equations for the cal- tials, are very useful in deriving numerous thermoculation of partial molar properties of components dynamic relations.

and as a result N1/N2 = nl/n2 becomes constant; consequently (bnl/bnz),, or N~ reduces to N , / N 2 . It. will be seen later that eq. 20 is thus completely general, and applicable to any system of any number of components. In Wagner’s treatment the independent variables expressing the chemical potentials are chosen5 as N 1 and y = LjT3/(N2 N 3 ) . Elimination of N z and 1\r3 from eq. 21 by using y and N1 N 2 N 3 = 1, then noting that the constancy of n2/n3is the same as that of y, and multiplying both sides with ( 3 ~ gives

However, it was pointed out in connec%ionwith eq. 7 and 8 that r13 = Nl/-v3 and r23 = N z / N ~become infinite v-hen the mole fraction of component 3 becomes zero. Kevertheless McKay’s equation is simple and very useful for the particular solutions wherein the molar ratios are An excellent summary of his ~ ) ~ and the correlation of various thermodymethod namic properties of strong electrolytes are presented by Harned and Owen.’ I n their succeeding treatments, Wagner used an analytical integration of eq. 24, and Schuhmann, a direct graphical integration of eq. 20; in both methods the integration is along the path of coiistant y (or hr2/N3),and from ;\rl in the vicinity of unity to any value of N1. Multicomponent Systems.-The foregoing relationships may now be extended to the multicomponent systems in the follon-ing manner.

The corresponding relation for p3 may be obtained either by starting with eq. 20 for p3, or eliminating bpz irom eq. 24 by means of eq. 22; however a much shorter procedure consists of interchanging the subscripts 2 and 3 i n ey. 24 and in y, and then observing that y and d y become 1 - y and - d y , and the last term remains unchanged. The foregoing method makes quite evident the necessity of choosing y as one of the variables because y must be any function of the mole ratio n2/n3which appears on the left-hand side of eq. 21 so that the constancy of y is the same as that of n2/n3. Therefore, any simple variable satisfying this condition may be selected; e.g., N3/N2, or N2/(Nz N3), the latter simply being equal to 1 - y used in deriving eq. 24. However it is convenient to use an expression for y which, unlike lv3/NZ, should remain finite for all values of N 2 and N3. This provides the justification for Wagner’s choice of lV3/(lv2 N a ) . Further when y = 0, eq. 24 becomes applicable to the binary system 1-2, and when y = 1 the relationship for (bP3/bl\;l)y becomes the expression for the binary system 1-3. The foregoing treatment shows that eq. 24 may be obtained in a simple and concise maimer by applying the cross differential 4 either to eq. 5 or to eq. 22 and then substituting the variables and y, and utilizing eq. 3. Further it is seen that eq. 20 is also that obtained by Schuhmann4; hence both methods are based on the same cross-diff erential. It is interesting to note that eq. 20 has been presented earlier by lIcI be ex d u I t t d t i t l i L r q r a i i l i i d l > 01 ai1 I!\ Pcliuhrninn’s intrgration b\ tiif iiietliod of trtngcnt i i i t ( I C L ts ~ 15 p u i i l y (0) €3

reduce the system into a binary system so that the resulting equation would assume the simple form. The relationship satisfying these conditions is

It is therefore obvious that for a multicomponent system the numerator in this equation contains i - 2 terms, and the denominator i - 1 terms. I n the tetrahedron of Fig. 2 , representing a quaternary system, the plane 1-2-W is that on which n4/n3= N4/iiV3 = a is a constant. Along any line from 1 to any point T‘, the ratio n2/n3is also a constant. Integration of eq. 26 will therefore be carried out along the line 1-1- on which there is one independent compoqition variable, i.e., N1. From eq. 27, and from LV4/LV3= a,and 2iYi = 1, it followsthat Elimination of ATzand A V 3 from eq. 26 by means of the preceding relations gkes

This relationship is the same as eq. 23 except for the additional restriction n3/n4on both sides; hence it may be transformed into the form represented by cq.24, i.e.

surfaces are represented by the constant p1 curves. The intercept of the tangent - A with the edge 1-2 yields, on the basis of the expansion of the right hand side of eq. 26 aiid the values of dNl/d2\lT3 and b.+r2/b~Tr3 from the triangle, the relations

The right-hand side of eq. 31 may thus be evaluated graphically from a plot of the values of eq. 32, us. p l a t constant n2/n3and n3/n4. For the chemical potential p3, eq. 26 assumes the form

Hence the evaluation of bnl/bn3must be made on a plane containing the edge 1-3 and intersecting 2-4, so that the restriction of constant n2/na and n8/n4 on the right side is satisfied. For a ternary system, i.e., N 4 = 0 in Fig. 3, the intercepts A , B and C are such that from the implicit function f(n1,n2, n3)pI = 0 and from eq. 3 they satisfy the relationship

where all segments, except TI’ - Coutside the triangle, are positive. (See also Schuhmann.) Equation 34 constitutesa statementof Jlenelaus aiid Ceva theorems in g e ~ m e t r y . ~ I n a quaternary system the intercepts B and C are of no useful significance since they do not correspond to any relevant partial derivative.’O The relationships parallel to eq. 34 may be obtained by means of the intercepts of a (constant y and nJ/n4) (30) plane tangent to the constant MI-surface in the where the lower integration limit p2 (y, n3/n4, quaternary tetrahedron.

The integration path is again represented by the constant ratios n2/n3 and n3/n4, i.e., along 1-T‘ in Figs. 2 and 3. Thus, the integration from Arl = h to S I , for a quaternary system is given t q Integration of this equation is then carried out a t constant y and n3/n4from Nl+l to N1 as outlined by Wagner.
