Does this volume free energy change for vapor to liquid phase is also negative??

[@kavurupraveen4523]

Does the entire nucletaion concepts explained here is applicable to water vapor to liquid droplet nucleation?

[@bikashsahoo2063]

sir why the volume of free energy is negative at less than the temperature (Tm)..

[@raghwendrapratap6050]

Volume free energy is always negative because there is delGv term is associated with it and it is difference of free energy change while transforming from liquid phase to solid phase.
