... The crossover occurs after the system manages to create a critical droplet of the liquid inside the vapour, which once it is present grows and invades the whole system. While in the metastable vapour state, the system makes many unsuccessful attempts to form a critical droplet. ...

... For simplicity, let's use an ideal gas for this example, so we reduce our expression to: Plugging this into our total expression, we can expand each of the ln terms and make use of the ln product rule to get where we can note that: • all terms depend on through the variable • the first term otherwis ...

States of matter Binding Forces Between Molecules
... For molecules to exist as aggregates in gases, liquids, and solids, intermolecular forces must exist. Like intramolecular bonding energies found in covalent bonds, intermolecular bonding is largely governed by electron orbital interactions. The key difference is that covalency is not established in ...

Chapter 6 lecture notes
... The system is described by a set of variables that represent the state of the system—these are called state variable. Common state variables are temperature, pressure, and volume. The distinguishing feature of state variables is that when a change of state occurs, the path taken in the change does n ...

Equation (13) does apply but one should note that its right hand side must not be confused with work [21], as mentioned above. I ...
