Abstract
In nature, we rarely find pure components or elements. We live in a world made of mixtures; therefore, we should shift our attention to mixtures components in solids, liquids, and gases. Because of this, we are more interested in the thermodynamics of mixing.

Fugacity can be defined as a measure of the tendency of a gas to escape or expand. It is the activity of a gas. Fugacity is not the same as pressure but it is closely related to it. The need for the fugacity is to have a form for the chemical potential that looks like that of an ideal gas but still obeys the rule that: \( \left( {\tfrac{\partial \mu }{{\partial {P}}}} \right)_{T} = {V} \).
