with ε is obtained. It can be seen that the larger the difference between the standard chemical
potentials (i.e. the steeper the slope of the line PQ), then the larger is the fraction of reaction to achieve
an equilibrium composition. This is to be expected because the driving force for the reaction has been
increased. Some examples of dissociation are given later and these can be more readily understood if
this section is borne in mind.
