State Raoult’s Law.
the vapor pressure of a solvent above a solution is equal to the vapor pressure of the pure solvent at the same temperature SCALED by the mole fraction of the solvent present
Write out the generalized, undifferentiated form of the Helmholtz free energy.
A = U - TS
The sign of the Helmholtz free energy change denotes
the direction of a spontaneous process in a system at constant volume and temperature (i.e. if da <= 0)
Sketch out a diagram of Helmholtz free energy versus time.

Write out the generalized, undifferentiated form of the Gibbs free energy.
G = H - TS
The sign of the Gibbs free energy change denotes
