Where [DELTA]G is the free energy of mixing, [DELTA]H is the enthalpy of mixing, T is the temperature, and AS is the entropy of mixing.

This means the entropy of mixing ([DELTA]S= k ln[ohm]) is reduced and if the enthalpy of mixing is unfavorable, then the free energy of mixing will be insufficient and spontaneous phase separation will occur.
