From Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary (1913) [web1913]:
Phase rule \Phase rule\ (Phys. Chem.)       A generalization with regard to systems of chemical       equilibrium, discovered by Prof. J. Willard Gibbs. It may be       stated thus: The degree of variableness (number of degrees of       freedom) of a system is equal to the number of components       minus the number of phases, plus two. Thus, if the components       be salt and water, and the phases salt, ice, saturated       solution, and vapor, the system is invariant, that is, there       is only one set of conditions under which these four phases       can exist in equilibrium. If only three phases be considered,       the system is univariant, that is, the fixing of one       condition, as temperature, determines the others.
