  2. Gibbs free energy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gibbs_free_energy

    C 6 H 6 (l) 124.5. 31.00. The standard Gibbs free energy of formation of a compound is the change of Gibbs free energy that accompanies the formation of 1 mole of that substance from its component elements, in their standard states (the most stable form of the element at 25 °C and 100 kPa). Its symbol is Δ fG ˚.

  3. Helmholtz free energy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Helmholtz_free_energy

    e. In thermodynamics, the Helmholtz free energy (or Helmholtz energy) is a thermodynamic potential that measures the useful work obtainable from a closed thermodynamic system at a constant temperature (isothermal). The change in the Helmholtz energy during a process is equal to the maximum amount of work that the system can perform in a ...

    Delta unveiled its profit-sharing program in 2007 as the company emerged from bankruptcy, and employees received their first payout in 2008, totaling $158 million.

  5. Delta potential - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Delta_potential

    The delta potential is the potential where δ(x) is the Dirac delta function. It is called a delta potential well if λ is negative, and a delta potential barrier if λ is positive. The delta has been defined to occur at the origin for simplicity; a shift in the delta function's argument does not change any of the following results.

  6. Enthalpy of vaporization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enthalpy_of_vaporization

    In thermodynamics, the enthalpy of vaporization (symbol ∆Hvap), also known as the (latent) heat of vaporization or heat of evaporation, is the amount of energy (enthalpy) that must be added to a liquid substance to transform a quantity of that substance into a gas. The enthalpy of vaporization is a function of the pressure and temperature at ...

  7. Dielectric loss - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dielectric_loss

    Dielectric loss. In electrical engineering, dielectric loss quantifies a dielectric material 's inherent dissipation of electromagnetic energy (e.g. heat). [1] It can be parameterized in terms of either the loss angle δ or the corresponding loss tangent tan (δ). Both refer to the phasor in the complex plane whose real and imaginary parts are ...

  8. Exergonic reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exergonic_reaction

    In chemical thermodynamics, an exergonic reaction is a chemical reaction where the change in the free energy is negative (there is a net release of free energy). [1] This indicates a spontaneous reaction if the system is closed and initial and final temperatures are the same. For processes that take place in a closed system at constant pressure ...

  9. Gibbs–Helmholtz equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gibbs–Helmholtz_equation

    Gibbs–Helmholtz equation. The Gibbs–Helmholtz equation is a thermodynamic equation used to calculate changes in the Gibbs free energy of a system as a function of temperature. It was originally presented in an 1882 paper entitled "Die Thermodynamik chemischer Vorgänge" by Hermann von Helmholtz. It describes how the Gibbs free energy, which ...
