What are Components in Thermodynamics?

In thermodynamics, a component is one of a collection of chemically-independent constituents of a system. The number of components represents the minimum number of independent species necessary to define the composition of all phases of the system. Calculating the number of components in a system is necessary when applying Gibbs' phase rule in determination of the number of degrees of freedom of a system.

What is Duhem’s Theorem?

For any closed system formed from known amounts of prescribed chemical species, the equilibrium state is completely determined when any
two independent variables are fixed. The two independent variables subject to specification may in general be either intensive or
extensive. However, the number of independent intensive variables is given by the phase rule. Thus when F = 1, at least one of the two variables must be extensive, and when F = 0, both must be extensive.
