Gibbs phase rule defines the relationship between degrees of freedom (F) of a system, number of phases (P) and the number of components (c). What is the equation?

Gibbs phase rule defines the relationship between degrees of freedom (F) of a system, number of phases (P) and the number of components (c). What is the equation? Correct Answer F + P = C + 2

Concept:

Gibbs phase Rule

P + F = C + Non-compositional variable

If numbers of Non-compositional variable is given then we should put that number, otherwise it is 2

i.e.

P + F = C + 2

P = No. of phases, F = Degrees of freedom, C = No. of components

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.
Number of components (C), phase (P) and degrees of freedom (F) are related by Gibbs phase rule as
There are 2 clocks A and B. The angle between minutes and hour hand of the clock A is x degrees and that between hands of clock B is y degrees. The sum of x and y is 180 degrees and difference between x and y is 40 degrees. If time on clock A is between 2 and 3 and on clock B is between 4 and 5, which of these is correct time combination of both clocks?
A small and medium enterprise imports two components A and B from Taiwan and China respectively and assembles them with other components to form a toy. Components A contributes to 10% of production cost while components B contributes to 20% of production cost. Usually the company sells this toy at 20% above the production cost. Due to increase in the raw material and labour cost in both the countries ,component A became 20% costlier and components B became 40% costlier. Owing to these reasons the company increased its selling price by 15%. Considering that cost of other components does not change. What will be the profit percentage if the toy is sold at the new price?

Based on the Gibbs phase rule, how many degrees of freedom are present at the triple point of water?
Election for a constituency was conducted in two phases where three contestants A, B and C contested. In first phase 48% of the total voters voted out which A and B got 32% and 46% of the votes (remaining to C). In the next phase where 75% of the remaining people voted A and B got 43% and 33% of the votes casted (Remaining to C). If the amount of votes obtained by A in phase 1 is less than the total votes obtained by B in phase 1 and C in phase 2 by 16080, then what is the total number of voters in the constituency?
