If the thermodynamic properties of the liquid mixture are ideal the volume of the mixture is given by the sum of products of amounts and molar volumes (at the same \(\mathrm{T}\) and \(\mathrm{p}\)); equation (a).
\[\mathrm{V}(\operatorname{mix} ; \mathrm{id})=\mathrm{n}_{1} \, \mathrm{V}_{1}^{*}(\ell)+\mathrm{n}_{2} \, \mathrm{V}_{2}^{*}(\ell) \nonumber \]
If the thermodynamic properties of the mixture are not ideal, the volume of the (real) mixture is given by equation (b).
\[\mathrm{V}(\operatorname{mix})=\mathrm{n}_{1} \, \mathrm{V}_{1}(\operatorname{mix})+\mathrm{n}_{2} \, \mathrm{V}_{2}(\operatorname{mix}) \nonumber \]
\(\mathrm{V}_{1}(\operatorname{mix})\) and \(\mathrm{V}_{1}(\operatorname{mix})\) are the partial molar volumes of chemical substances 1 and 2 defined by equations (c) and (d).
\[V_{1}(m i x)=\left(\frac{\partial V}{\partial n_{1}}\right)_{T, p, n(2)} \nonumber \]
\[V_{2}(\operatorname{mix})=\left(\frac{\partial V}{\partial n_{2}}\right)_{T, p, n(1)} \nonumber \]
The similarities between equations (a) and (b) are obvious and indicate an important method for describing the extensive properties of a given system. This was the aim of G. N. Lewis [1] who sought equations of the form shown in equation (b). In general terms, we identify an extensive property \(\mathrm{X}\) of a given system such that the variable can be written in the general form shown in equation (e).
\[\mathrm{X}=\mathrm{n}_{1} \, \mathrm{X}_{1}+\mathrm{n}_{2} \, \mathrm{X}_{2} \nonumber \]
where
\[\mathrm{X}_{1}=\left(\frac{\partial \mathrm{X}}{\partial \mathrm{n}_{1}}\right)_{\mathrm{T}, \mathrm{p}, \mathrm{n}(2)} \nonumber \]
\[X_{2}(\operatorname{mix})=\left(\frac{\partial X}{\partial n_{2}}\right)_{T_{, p, n(1)}} \nonumber \]
Other than the composition variables, the conditions on the partial differentials in equations (f) and (g) are intensive properties;
- mechanical variable, pressure, and
- thermal variable, temperature.
Partial molar properties can also be defined for different pairs of intensive thermal and non-thermal variables, other than \(\mathrm{T}\) and \(\mathrm{p}\) [2]. The concept of a partial property was extended to intensive properties such as isothermal and isentropic compressibilities [3].
A further distinction between Lewisian and non-Lewisian partial molar properties has been proposed [2,4].
