Interpretation:
The degree of freedom for the given system on addition of olive is to be stated.
Concept introduction:
The degree of freedom can be defined as the variables used to define a system which is at equilibrium. This can be determined using Gibbs rule which is given below.
In the above equation, F is the degree of freedom, C is number of components present in system and P is the number of phases in the system.
Answer to Problem 7.1E
The degree of freedom of the water and ethanol system on addition of olive is
Explanation of Solution
The example
Thus, the variables selected for determining degree of freedom are phases and number of components.
