The temperature T of a system of N particles is a quantity related to the averaged kinetic energy of the disordered motion of the particle in the C-frame of reference.

Only irreversible processes generate entropy. The entropy change of reversible

process is exactly zero. Most basic irreversible process is

Concept of an ensembleConcept of an ensemble Members of the ensemble

represents a state of a system in accordance with external macroscopic parameters (e.g. N, V, T).

A state is either defined classically (a point in phase space) or quantum mechanically (quantum numbers).

Mechanical quantities M are averages over the ensemble: Pressure, volume, energy, ….. But not entropy S and free energies

(A, G).

Quantum numbersQuantum numbers The state of the system is fully described by the

wave function. The state of the system is fully described by a

set of quantum numbers (n, m, l, …..). The total energy of the system is given from

Schrödinger equation. An observable such as the energy E corresponds to an operator such as H.

Previous formulation for G (or K) is not suitable for computational purposes. Instead what is required are expressions for: Standard chemical potential or some related

quantity. Activity coefficients, for low or moderate to high
