“…where Δ G r 0 and Q r refer to the standard molal Gibbs energy and the reaction quotient of the indicated reaction, respectively, R represents the gas constant, and T denotes temperature in kelvin. Values of Δ G r 0 are calculated for every reaction at every depth using the revised‐HKF equations of state (Helgeson et al, ; Shock et al, ; Tanger & Helgeson, ), the SUPCRT software package (Johnson et al, ), and thermodynamic data taken from Amend and Helgeson (), Amend and Plyasunov (), Dick et al (), Helgeson et al (), LaRowe and Dick (), LaRowe and Amend (), Richard (), Richard and Helgeson (), Schulte et al (), Shock et al (), Shock and Helgeson (, ), and Sverjensky et al (). For SPG, we use a temperature of 5.0°C (D'Hondt et al, ) and a representative pressure of 513.6 bar.…”
