Gibbs: Phase Rule:
“Willard Gibbs in evolving his phase rule was engaged in probability relating to chemistry when he inadvertently and intuitively conceived of his phase rule for explaining the number of energetic freedoms necessary to introduce into a system complexedly constituted of crystals, liquids, and gases, in order to unlock them into a common state of liquidity. His discovered phase rule and topology are the same: they are both synergetic.”
