hi,
can someone help me in understanding the difference between chemical potential and activity?
Why it is important to know/determine activities of certain species in material growth? Given that activity is dimensionless quantity, what is it measuring?
Also, what is the activity of pure solids, liquids, and gases? Is it important to specify temperature, pressure, etc. when asking for species' activites?
Thank you in advance.
