吉布斯能与电动势Gibbs energy and EMF

\[\Delta_rG = -nFE,\qquad \Delta_rS = nF\left(\frac{\partial E}{\partial T}\right)_p,\qquad \Delta_rH = -nFE + nFT\left(\frac{\partial E}{\partial T}\right)_p\]

含义Meaning

可逆电池能做的最大电功等于反应吉布斯能的减少。测定电动势及其温度系数,即可求得反应的 ΔG、ΔS、ΔH。

The maximum electrical work of a reversible cell equals the decrease in Gibbs energy; measuring EMF and its temperature coefficient yields ΔG, ΔS and ΔH.

推导Derivation

  1. 恒温恒压下非体积功的最大值 \(W_\text{max} = -\Delta G\)。

    At constant T and p the maximum non-expansion work is −ΔG.

  2. 电功 = 电量 × 电势差 = nFE,所以 \(\Delta G = -nFE\)。

    Electrical work nFE gives ΔG = −nFE.

  3. 由 \((\partial\Delta G/\partial T)_p = -\Delta S\) 得 ΔS,再由 ΔH = ΔG + TΔS 得 ΔH。

    Differentiate for ΔS; then ΔH = ΔG + TΔS.

适用条件与局限Assumptions & limitations

  • 要求可逆(零电流)测量;实际放电时 E 降低,部分能量成为热。

    Requires reversible (zero-current) conditions.
