Understanding Fugacity in Thermodynamics by ATUL SONAWANE is a document available to read on EtoBox.
The fugacity is defined for real gases so that the chemical potential is expressed correctly in terms of temperature and pressure. For an ideal gas, the chemical potential depends on pressure through the logarithm of the pressure. For real gases, the fugacity replaces the pressure in this logarithmic term and is related to but not equal to the actual pressure. The fugacity coefficient accounts for the difference between the fugacity and pressure. Its value ensures the derivative of the chemical potential wi
