Question:
Which of the following is not correct for the first order phase transition?
Which of the following is not correct for the first order phase transition?
Show Hint
For first-order transitions, the first derivative of \( G \) (entropy, volume) is discontinuous, but \( G \) itself is continuous.
Updated On: Mar 26, 2025
- There is a change in entropy during phase transition
- Volume changes during phase transition
- Gibbs function changes discontinuously at phase transition temperature
- First order derivatives of Gibb’s function change discontinuously at phase transition temperature
Hide Solution
Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is C
Solution and Explanation
In a first-order phase transition, properties such as entropy and volume change discontinuously, but the Gibbs free energy remains continuous.
