Term · Meteorology and atmospheric science · MLC-T-MET-003280
A thermodynamic measure of the effective concentration of a substance in a mixture, accounting for non-ideal behavior due to intermolecular interactions. It represents the chemical potential of a component relative to its standard state. For ideal solutions, the activity is equal to the mole fraction or concentration of the substance.
