The common question faced by users while generating a stability diagram is: How to choose a subsystem and how to determine the stability of metal containing species in certain subsystems?
The logical approach to take for this is the following algorithm:
Please note:
What is a redox subsystem?
- A set of species that contain a given element in all possible oxidation
states.
- Example: The iron subsystem consists of all species that contain Fe0, Fe2+ and Fe3+.
