Abstract
Up to this point, several thermodynamic functions have been developed to predict the equilibrium position of chemical systems, especially those related to metallurgical processes. The examples developed throughout the manuscript represent classical chemical thermodynamics calculations aimed at predicting the behavior of metallurgical systems.
