By use of the Jacobi determinant, we verify that, for a thermodynamic system which satisfies the first law of thermodynamics, if only there is second-order phase transition in the system, the Prigogine–Defay ratio is the constant 1. This conclusion is universal and independent of the concrete forms of the thermodynamic functions and also apply to black holes.

In this paper, we generalize Ehrenfest's equations to systems having two work terms, i.e. systems with three degrees of freedom. For black holes with two work terms we obtain nine equations instead of two to be satisfied at the critical point of a second-order phase transition. We finally generalize this method to a system with an arbitrary number of degrees of freedom and found there is [Formula: see text] equations to be satisfied at the point of a second-order phase transition where N is number of work terms in the first law of thermodynamics.
