The enthalpy H is written as: H = H(n1, n2, n3 ) (S4) where n1, n2 and n3 are, respectively, the number of moles of components 1, 2 and 3. In this system the partial enthalpies of components 1, 2 and 3 are defined as: h1,2,3 = ( ¶H(n1, n2 , n3 ) )n2 ,n3 ¶n1 (S5) ¶H(n1, n2 , n3 ) )n1,n3 ¶n2 (S6) ¶H(n1, n2 , n3 ) )n1,n2 ¶n3 (S7) h2,1,3 = ( h3,1,2 = ( For a 2-compent systems the partial enthalpies h2,1 and h1,2 are defined in a similar way as in Eqs. 5– 7. For the variables n1, n2 and n3, and using the partial enthalpies (Eqs. 5–7), the differential of H takes the form: dH = h1,2,3dn1 + h2,1,3dn2 + h3,1,2 dn3 (S8) If we consider the system as composed of a solvent (component 1) and a complex solute, S, composed of components 2 and 3, then the enthalpy H can be written as H = H(n1, nS, xs3 ) (S9) where: Page 3 Supporting Information Isothermal Titration Calorimetry: Application of the Gibbs-Duhem equation to the study of the forward and reverse titrations nS = n1 + n2 (S10) n3 n2 + n3 (S11) xs3 = In this case nS represents the number of moles of the complex solute and xs3 is a variable related to its composition. From Eq. 9, dH takes the form: dH = h1,Sdn1 + hS,1dnS + ( ¶H )n ,n dxs3 ¶xs3 1 S (S12) where h1;S is the partial enthalpy of the solvent in the presence of the complex solute, h1,3 (xS, xs3 ) = ( ¶H(n1, nS, xs3 ) )nS,xs3 ¶n1 (S13) and hS;1 is the partial enthalpy of the complex solute in the solvent, hS,1 (xS, xs3 ) = ( ¶H(n1, nS, xs3 ) )n1,xs3 . ¶nS (S14) The variable xS represents the mole fraction of the complex solute. From Eqs. 10 and 11 the change of variables can be written as: n1 (n1, nS, xs3 ) = n1 (S15) n2 (n1, nS, xs3 ) = (1- xs3 )nS (S16) n3 (n1, nS, xs3 ) = xs3nS (S17) Differentiating Eqs. 15 – 17, we obtain, respectively: dn1 = dn1 ¶n2 )xs3 dnS + ( ¶n2 )nS dxs3 = (1- xs3 )dnS - nSdxs3 ¶nS ¶ns3 (S19) ¶n3 )xs3 dnS + ( ¶n3 )nS dxs3 = xs3dnS + nSdxs3 ¶nS ¶ns3 (S20) dn2 = ( dn3 = ( (S18) Substituting Eqs. 18–20 into Eq. 8 and considering xs2 = 1 – xs3: Supporting Information Page 4 J.-P.

M. del Río Journal of Solution Chemistry dH = h1,2,3dn1 +(xs2h2,1,3 + xs3h3,1,2 )dnS +(h3,1,2 - h2,1,3 )dxs3 (S21) Equating Eq. 12 to Eq. 21 and considering that n1, nS, and xs3 are independent variables we obtain the following relations: h1,S = h1,2,3 (S22) hS,1 = xs2 h2,1,3 + xs3h3,1,2 (S23) ( ¶H ) (S24) ¶xS3 n1,nS = nS (h3,1,2 - h2,1,3 ) 3 Gibbs–Duhem Equation in “Complex Solute” Variables The Euler´s equation for the enthalpy, expressed as a function of the complex solute (Eq. 9), is: H = h1,Sn1 + hS,1nS (S25) The Gibbs–Duhem equation is obtained by differentiating Eq. 25, combining the result with Eqs. 12 and 24, and dividing by the total number of moles: x1dh1,S + xSdhS,1 = xS (h3,2,1 - h2,1,3 )dxs3 (S26) Considering now that h1;S and hS;1 are functions of xS and xs3: dh1,S = ( ¶h1,S )xs3 dxS + (¶h1,S )xS dxs3 ¶xS ¶xs3 (S27) dhS,1 = ( ¶hS,1 )xs3 dxS + (¶hS,1 )xS dxs3 ¶xS ¶xs3 (S28) and substituting Eqs. 27 and 28 in Eq. 26 and bearing in mind that xS and xs3 are independent variables, the following equations are obtained: x1 ( Page 5 ¶h1,S )xs3 + xS (¶hS,1 )xs3 = 0 ¶xS ¶xS (S29) Supporting Information Isothermal Titration Calorimetry: Application of the Gibbs-Duhem equation to the study of the forward and reverse titrations x1 ( ¶h1,S )xS + xS{(¶hS,1 )xS - (h3,1,2 - h2,1,3 )} = 0 ¶xs3 ¶xs3 (S30) Differentiating in Eq. 23 with respect to xs3 and reorganizing: (¶h ) S,1 ¶xs3 xS - (h3,1,2 - h2,1,3 ) = xs 2 ( ¶h2,1,3 )xS + xs3 (¶h3,1,2 )xS ¶xs3 ¶xs3 (S31) and substituting the result in Eq. 30, the Gibbs–Duhem equation then takes the form: x1 ( ¶h1,S )xs3 + xS (¶hS,1 )xs3 = 0 ¶xS ¶xS (S32) x1 ( ¶h1,S )xS + xS[ xs2 (¶h2,1,3 )xS + xs3(¶h3,1,2 )xS ] = 0 ¶xs3 ¶xs3 ¶xs3 (S33) 4 Diluted Solutions in 2-Component Systems Experimentally it is easy to get a diluted solution: one only has to put more solvent in the solution. Theoretically it is more difficult. This is because it is necessary to know the mathematical properties that provide the characteristics of “diluted solution” in the thermodynamic partial properties. The purpose of this section is to develop a mathematical framework in order to treat diluted solutions in systems of two components. It is an experimental fact that when a solute is removed from a solution, the behavior of the solution approaches to the behavior of the solvent. This behavior allows the purification of substances. In a 2-component system this fact can be expressed as: limn2 ®0 H(n1, n2 ) = n1h1 (S34) where h1 is the molar enthalpy of component 1 in its pure state. Considering Eq. 34 to be a hypothesis, we will obtain, following Taylor´s expansion for the partial property of the solvent: h1,2 (x2 ) = h1,2 (0) + dh1,2 (0) x2 +... dx2 (S35) that the independent term is: h1,2 (0) = h1 Supporting Information (S36) Page 6 J.-P. E. Grolier, J. M. del Río Journal of Solution Chemistry and the following term is: dh1,2 (0) =0 dx2 (S37) We will employ this fact to characterize a diluted solution and we will say that a solution is diluted if: h1,2 (x2 ) » h1 (S38) In order to consider Eq. 38 as a thermodynamic fact when x2 is small enough, in what follows in this section we will demonstrate Eqs. 36 and 37. 4.1 Calculation of the Independent Term Equation 37 can be written as: lim x2 ®0 h1,2 = h1 (S39) and then, in this way: lim x2 ®0 h1,2 (x2 ) = lim n2 ®0 ( ¶H (n1, n2 ) )n2 ¶n1 = lim n2 ®0[lim D®0 = lim D®0[lim n2 ®0 H (n1 + D, n2 ) - H (n2 , n2 ) ] D H (n1 + D, n2 ) - H (n2 , n2 ) ] D (S40) Now applying Eq. 34 one gets: h1 {n1 + D} - h1n1 ] D hD = lim D®0 ( 1 ) D = h1 h1,2 (0) = lim D®0[ (S41) 4.2 Calculation of the First Derivative Equation 37 will be written as: Page 7 Supporting Information Isothermal Titration Calorimetry: Application of the Gibbs-Duhem equation to the study of the forward and reverse titrations dh1,2 (0) dh = lim x2 ®0 ( 1,2 ) = 0 dx2 dx2 (S42) In order to demonstrate Eq. 42, it is necessary to start with the Gibbs–Duhem equation for a 2component system: x1 ( dh1,2 ) + x2 ( dh2,1 ) = 0 dx2 dx2 (S43) Taking the limits in Eq. 43 as x2 approaches zero: lim x2 ®0 ( dh1,2 ) + lim x2®0 ( dh2,1 ) = 0 dx2 dx2 (S44) In this way, it can be demonstrated that Eq. 42 is equivalent to Eq. 44: lim x2 ®0 ( dh2,1 )= 0 dx2 (S45) It is easy to see Eq. 45 in the following way: lim x2 ®0 x2 ( dh2,1 ) = lim x2 ®0 x2[lim D®0 { x2,1 (x2 + D) - h2,1 (x2 )}] dx2 D x h (x + D) - x2 h2,1 (x2 ) = lim x2 ®0[lim D®0 { 2 2,1 2 }] D x h (x + D) - x2 h2,1 (x2 ) = lim D®0[ lim x2 ®0 { 2 2,1 2 }] D 1 = lim D®0 ( ){lim x2 ®0 x2 h2,1 (x2 + D) - lim x2 ®0 x2 h2,1 (x2 )} D (S46) First we can see that: lim x2 ®0 x2 h2,1 (x2 ) = 0 (S47) lim x2 ®0 x2 h2,1 (x2 ) = (lim x2 ®0 x2 )´{lim x2 ®0 h2,1 (x2 )} (S48) In effect, Considering now that: lim x2 ®0 x2 = lim n2 ®0 ( Supporting Information n2 ) n1 + n2 (S49) Page 8 J.-P. E. Grolier, J. M. del Río Journal of Solution Chemistry and that: lim x2 ®0 h2,1 (x) = lim n2 ®0 ( H(n1, n ) - h1n1 ), n2 (S50) Eq, 48 takes the form: æ n2 ö æ H (n1 ,n2 ) - h1n1 ö ÷÷ ´ çç lim n ®0 ÷÷ lim x ®0 x2 h2,1 (x2 ) = çç lim n ®0 2 2 2 n1 + n2 ø è n2 è ø H (n1 ,n2 ) - h1n1 = lim n ®0{ } 2 n1 + n2 (S51) Keeping in mind the hypothesis of Eq. 34, one gets: lim x ®0 x2 h2,1 (x2 ) = lim n ®0{ 2 2 = H (n1 ,n2 ) - h1n1 } n11 + n2 h1n1 - h1n1 n1 (S52) =0 For the other limit in Eq. 46, we have: ( ) ( lim x ®0 x2h2;1 (x2 + D) = lim x ®0 x2 ´ lim x ®0 h2;1 (x2 + D) 2 2 2 ) = 0 ´ h2;1 (D) (S53) =0 because h2,1(Δ) < ∞. Substituting now Eqs. 52 and 53 into Eq. 46, then that: lim x2 ®0 {x2 ( dh2,1 )} = lim D®0 ( 1 )(0 - 0) dx2 D (S54) =0 and thus Eq. 37 is demonstrated. 5 Diluted Solutions in 3-Component Systems When we have two solutes in solution, Eq. 34 can be generalized as: lim n2 +n3®0 H(n1, n2, n3 ) = h1n1 Page 9 (S55) Supporting Information Isothermal Titration Calorimetry: Application of the Gibbs-Duhem equation to the study of the forward and reverse titrations Or, making a change of variables by using the “complex solute” variables, limn ®0 H(n1,nS ,ns3 ) = h1n1 (S56) S The Taylor´s expansion of h1;S as function of the molar fraction of the complex solute (xS) and the composition of the complex solute (xs3), around xS = 0, is: é x h1,S (xS , xs3 ) = h1,S (0, xs3 ) + Ñh1,S (0, xs3 )ê S ê x ë s3 ù ú + ... ú û (S57) ææ ö ¶h1,S (xS , xs3 ) ö æ ¶h1,S (xS , xs3 ) ö ÷ ç ç ÷ ç ÷ Ñh1,S (xS , xs3 ) = ç ÷ ,ç ÷ ÷ çè ¶xS ¶xs3 øxs 3 è øxS ø è (S58) where h1,S(xS,xs3) is the gradient of h1,S defined as: In this section we will demonstrate that: h1,S (0, xs3 ) = h1 (S59) Ñh1,S (0, xs3 ) = (0, 0) (S60) and that: In this way, for diluted solutions, Eq. 57 takes the form: h1,s (xS, xs3 ) » h1 (S61) 5.1 Calculation of the Independent Term Equation 59 will be written in an equivalent form: lim x ®0 h1,S = h1 (S62) S Then, Eq. 62 can be rewritten in the following way: Supporting Information Page 10 J.-P.
