Chemical potential
Description
The chemical potential of a substance B, µB [J/mol], is the partial derivative of Gibbs energy, G [J], per amount of B, nB [mol], at constant temperature, pressure, and composition other than that of B,
µB = (dG/dnB)T,p,nj=B
The chemical potential of a solute in solution is the sum of the standard chemical potential measured under defined standard conditions and a concentration (activity)-dependent term,
µB = µB° + RT ln(aB)
The standard state for the solute is refered to ideal behaviour at standard concentration, c° = 1 mol/L, exhibiting infinitely diluted solution behaviour.
