According to Gibbs rule the number of phases (P) present in a system in equilibrium is given as_________

According to Gibbs rule the number of phases (P) present in a system in equilibrium is given as_________ Correct Answer P=C+N-F

P+F=C+N, where F is the degree of freedom, N is the non-compositional variable and C is the number of components. Here the degree of freedom is an intensive variable hence can be varied independently while still maintaining the equilibrium.

Statement (I): The three phase (triple State/point) of a single component system possesses a single set of properties. Statement (II): For a single component system, the Gibbs phase rule, F = C + 2 - P (where F is number of independent intensive properties, C is number of components in the system and P is number of phases), reduces to F = 3 - P.
