Chapter 7, Problem 7.2E

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The degree of freedom for the given equilibrium condition is to be stated.

Concept introduction:

The degree of freedom can be defined as the variables used to define a system which is at equilibrium. This can be determined using Gibbs rule which is given below.

$\text{F}=\text{C}-\text{P}+2$

In the above equation, F is the degree of freedom, C is number of components present in system and P is the number of phases in the system.
