A thermodynamically consistent formula is derived for the nucleation work in multicomponent homogeneous nucleation. The derivation relies on the conservative dividing surface which defines the nucleus as having specific surface energy equal to the specific surface energy sigma0 of the interface between the macroscopically large new and old phases at coexistence. Expressions are given for the radius of the nucleus defined by the conservative dividing surface and by the surface of tension. As a side result, the curvature dependence of the surface tension sigmaT of the nucleus defined by the surface of tension is also determined. The analysis is valid for nuclei of any size, i.e., for nucleation in the whole range of conditions between the binodal and the spinodal of the metastable old phase provided the inequality sigmaT < or = sigma0 is satisfied. It is found that under the conditions of validity of the analysis the nucleation rate is higher than the nucleation rate given by the classical nucleation theory. The general results are applied to nucleation of unary liquids or solids in binary gaseous, liquid or solid mixtures.
