Abstract:  Several methods of derivation of the generalized LeChatelier—Schröder equation which describes the course or the liquidus curves in binary systems with a simple eutectic have been compared. From this analysis it follows that the activity of the /-th component in its at equilibrium saturated liquid solution is a function of the molar enthalpy of fusion of this pure component, i.e., ΔH_i^0.1/0.5  Further, the phenomenon of the retrograde solubility of substances in binary systems of the given type is discussed.
