A forthcoming article in The Quarterly Review of Biology provides the basis for an argument against using the Gibbs free energy equation to accurately determine the thermodynamics of microbial growth.

LESSON OBJECTIVE: Understand the concept of Gibbs free energy, ΔG, and use the equation ΔG = ΔH – TΔS to determine the feasibility of a reaction. 1 state and use the Gibbs equation ΔG⦵ = ΔH⦵ – TΔS⦵ 2 ...

In typical mixtures, Raoult's law provides no more than a rough approximation; only when the components in the liquid mixture are similar, e.g., a mixture of n-butane and isobutane, can we assume that ...

WITHIN recent years considerable doubt has been cast upon the validity of the Gibbs adsorption isotherm as applied to aqueous solutions of the paraffin–chain salts (soaps and soap–like molecules) 1,2.
