Question:

In a three-component system of phase equilibria, the maximum number of degrees of freedom can be: (use the phase rule \(F = C - P + 2\), with the minimum number of phases \(P = 1\))

Show Hint

Degrees of freedom are maximum when the number of phases is minimum, P=1.

The Correct Option is A

Solution and Explanation

Step 1: F=C-P+2.
Step 2: C=3, minimum P=1.
Step 3: F=3-1+2=4.
\[\boxed{F_{max} = 4}\]
