water potential
water potential:水勢是指同溫同壓同一系統中,一偏摩爾體積(V)水(含溶質的水)的自由能(μw)與一摩爾體積(V)純水的自由能(μ0w)的差值(Δμw)。Water potential is defined as the difference in free energy per unit volume, between matrically -bound, pressurized, or osmotically- constrained water and pure water。
Ψw=(μw / Vw) - (μ0w/Vw) =(μw-μ0w)/Vw
=Δμw/Vw
