Question

Consider a system of C components. Compenent 1 is the solvent and we have a fixed number N1 moles of these in the system.The number of moles of the remaining C-1 components is allowed to changed by coupling to C-1 chemical pothntial baths.(see attached file)

(a). 
As the piston is made thermally conductive and moveable so both heat and work transfer will take place 
through the piston. 
We know from the first law of thermodynamics; 
Change in Internal energy, ∆U = ∆Q  - ∆W 
By entropy maximum principle we know that, the equilibrium value of any unconstrained internal 
parameter is such as to maximize the entropy for the given value of the total internal energy . 
We know that; 
∆Q = T∆S 
And                                                                                  ∆? = ?∆? 
∆U =  T∆S  −  ?∆? 
By applying the ideal gas equation on both small and larger side;
