partial molar properties

Partial molar properties represent how a specific component's characteristics, like volume, energy, or entropy, change within a mixture as you add or remove a small amount of that component, while keeping temperature and pressure constant. They help us understand how each substance influences the overall properties of the entire mixture. For example, the partial molar volume indicates how much the volume of a mixture would change if we added a tiny amount of a particular substance. These properties are essential for analyzing and predicting behaviors in chemical systems and mixtures.
