Equilibria in Electrochemistry and Maximal Rates of Reaction
Abstract
We consider Gibbs' definition of chemical equilibrium and connect it with dynamic equilibrium, in terms of no substance formed. We determine the activity coefficient as a function of temperature and pressure, in reactions with or without interaction of a solvent, incorporating the error terms from Raoult's Law and Henry's Law, if necessary. We compute the maximal reaction paths and apply the results to electrochemistry, using the Nernst equation.
