The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- His work on the applications of thermodynamics was instrumental in transforming physical chemistry into a rigorous deductive science.
- Together with James Clerk Maxwell and Ludwig Boltzmann, he created statistical mechanics, explaining the laws of thermodynamics as consequences of the statistical properties of ensembles of the possible states of a physical system composed of many particles.
- Gibbs also worked on the application of Maxwell's equations to problems in physical optics.
