So, in my thermo book, it says that the gibbs free energy change of a reaction is the free energy received by the system at constant T,p and constant chemical potential when the extent of the reaction varies by one mol. The part that is confusing me is the "constant chemical potentials"statement. If the extent of the reaction is changing, aren't the chemical potentials changing as well? Can the change in free energy of a reaction be used to predict how much work one can get out of a chemical reaction?
