The variation with partial pressure of the chemical potential of a perfect gas is given by
Where Note that the chemical potential increases with pressure and, at a given pressure, with temperature. To graph the change in chemical potential (J mol-1) enter the parameter (i.e., T) and hit New Plot.
Up to 5 plots can be displayed at one time. The Clear button will remove all plots. To see the parameters
for each plot hit the Legend on/off button. The Redraw button will refresh the graph. This is useful when
