An important question for chemists, and particularly for biochemists, is, Will the reaction proceed in the direction written J. Willard Gibbs, one of the founders of thermodynamics, realized that the answer to this question lay in a comparison of the enthalpy change and the entropy change for a reaction at a given temperature. The Gibbs free energy, G, is defined as...

Two theoreticians working in the latter half of the nineteenth century changed the very nature of chemistry by deriving the mathematical laws that govern the behavior of matter undergoing physical or chemical change. One of these was James Clerk Maxwell, whose contributions to kinetic theory were discussed in Chapter 5. The other was J. Willard Gibbs, Professor of Mathematical Physics at Yale from 1871 until his death in 1903.

The vapour pressure relations of mixed liquids were cleared up experimentally by the Russian chemist, Dmitri Konowalow (1881) the theory had previously (unknown to Konowalow) been developed by J. Willard Gibbs in 1875. 

There is a very important equation relating to the electromotive forces of reversible cells which was deduced independently by J. Willard Gibbs (1875) and H. von Helmholtz (1882), and is usually called the Gibbs-Helmholtz Equation. 

There is no single criterion for the system alone that applies to all processes. However, if we restrict the conditions to constant temperature and pressure, there is a state function whose change for the system predicts spontaneity. This new state function is the free energy (G), which was introduced by the American J. Willard Gibbs and is defined by Equation G = H - T S As usual, H is enthalpy, T is absolute temperature, and S is entropy.

The mathematical basis of classic thermodynamics was developed by J. Willard Gibbs in his essay [1], On the Equilibrium of Heterogeneous Substances, which builds on the earlier work of Kelvin, Clausius, and Helmholtz, among others. In particular, he derived the phase mle, which describes the conditions of equilibrium for multiphase, multicomponent systems, which are so important to the geologist and to the materials scientist. In this chapter, we will present a derivation of the phase rule and apply the result to several examples. 

Many friends have asked why a new edition of a thermodynamics text is necessary, because the subject has not changed basically since the work of J. Willard Gibbs. One answer is given by the statement of Lord Rayleigh in a letter to Gibbs, ...
