The free energy change associated with homogeneous nucleation of a sphere (assume the radius as 5m) has an interfacial energy term and a volume free energy. Calculate the value of the interfacial term if the interfacial energy is given as (1/п) kJ/m2Kmol?

Correct Answer: 100 kJ/Kmol
The interfacial energy term is directly proportional to the square of the radius and the related equation is the product of the surface area and the interfacial energy and is given as 4пr2γ.
