Ideal solutions represent a useful reference for understanding the properties of real solutions. Here, we derive expressions for the KB integrals, the central components of KB theory, in ideal solutions of any number of components corresponding to the three main concentration scales. The results are illustrated by use of molecular dynamics simulations for two binary solutions mixtures, benzene with toluene, and methanethiol with dimethylsulfide, which closely approach ideal behavior, and a binary mixture of benzene and methanol which is nonideal. Simulations of a quaternary mixture containing benzene, toluene, methanethiol, and dimethylsulfide suggest this system displays ideal behavior and that ideal behavior is not limited to mixtures containing a small number of components. © 2010 American Institute of Physics. ͓doi:10.1063/1.3398466͔ I.

  • Colloidal Suspensions
    Chapter 9 Colloidal suspensions 9.1 Introduction So far we have discussed the motion of one single Brownian particle in a surrounding fluid and eventually in an extaernal potential. There are many practical applications of colloidal suspensions where several interacting Brownian particles are dissolved in a fluid. Colloid science has a long history startying with the observations by Robert Brown in 1828. The colloidal state was identified by Thomas Graham in 1861. In the first decade of last century studies of colloids played a central role in the development of statistical physics. The experiments of Perrin 1910, combined with Einstein's theory of Brownian motion from 1905, not only provided a determination of Avogadro's number but also laid to rest remaining doubts about the molecular composition of matter. An important event in the development of a quantitative description of colloidal systems was the derivation of effective pair potentials of charged colloidal particles. Much subsequent work, largely in the domain of chemistry, dealt with the stability of charged colloids and their aggregation under the influence of van der Waals attractions when the Coulombic repulsion is screened strongly by the addition of electrolyte. Synthetic colloidal spheres were first made in the 1940's. In the last twenty years the availability of several such reasonably well characterised "model" colloidal systems has attracted physicists to the field once more. The study, both theoretical and experimental, of the structure and dynamics of colloidal suspensions is now a vigorous and growing subject which spans chemistry, chemical engineering and physics. A colloidal dispersion is a heterogeneous system in which particles of solid or droplets of liquid are dispersed in a liquid medium.

It is a consequence of the equality between the chemical potentials of the vapor and liquid (solid). The derivation can be found in any undergraduate text on thermodynamics (e.g. Kittel & Kroemer [1]): Δv · ∂P = L · ∂T/T (1) where P is the pressure, T is the temperature, L is the latent heat of vaporization (sublimation) per particle, and Δv is given by: Vv Vl(s) Δv = vv − vl(s) = − (2) Nv Nl(s) where V is the volume occupied by the particles, N is the number of particles, and the subscripts v & l(s) refer to the vapor & liquid (solid) respectively.

Conselice, Aaron Wilkinson, Kenneth Duncan1, Alice Mortlock2 University of Nottingham, School of Physics & Astronomy, Nottingham, NG7 2RD UK 1Leiden Observatory, Leiden University, PO Box 9513, 2300 RA Leiden, the Netherlands 2SUPA, Institute for Astronomy, University of Edinburgh, Royal Observatory, Edinburgh, EH9 3HJ ABSTRACT The evolution of the number density of galaxies in the universe, and thus also the total number of galaxies, is a fundamental question with implications for a host of astrophysical problems including galaxy evolution and cosmology. However there has never been a detailed study of this important measurement, nor a clear path to answer it. To address this we use observed galaxy stellar mass functions up to z ∼ 8 to determine how the number densities of galaxies changes as a function of time and mass limit. We show that the increase in the total number density of galaxies (φT), more massive 6 −1 than M∗ = 10 M⊙ , decreases as φT ∼ t , where t is the age of the universe. We further show 7 that this evolution turns-over and rather increases with time at higher mass lower limits of M∗ > 10 6 M⊙ . By using the M∗ = 10 M⊙ lower limit we further show that the total number of galaxies in the +0.7 12 universe up to z = 8 is 2.0−0.6 × 10 (two trillion), almost a factor of ten higher than would be seen in an all sky survey at Hubble Ultra-Deep Field depth.

Basic thermodynamic variables are: Pressure, p (N m-2; 1 N m-2 = 1 pascal (Pa) = 0.01 millibar (mb) = 0.01hectoPascals (hPa). Density, r (kgm-3) Temperature, T (K) . If the energy due to intermolecular forces is small relative to molecular kinetic energy, the ideal gas law is an excellent approximation to the equation of state relating these variables: pRT=r (1.1) R* where R = = gas constant; R* = universal gas constant = 8314J kmol-1 K-1; M = molar M weight (kg/kg-mole) and R = specific gas constant for dry air = 287 J kg-1 K-1. 1.2 Molecules and the ideal gas law, Maxwell's kinetic interpretation.

  • A Theory for Calculating the Number Density Distribution of Small Particles on a Flat Wall from Pressure Between the Two Walls
    A theory for calculating the number density distribution of small particles on a flat wall from pressure between the two walls Kota Hashimotoa and Ken-ichi Amanoa aDepartment of Energy and Hydrocarbon Chemistry, Graduate School of Engineering, Kyoto University, Kyoto 615-8510, Japan. E-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT Surface force apparatus (SFA) and atomic force microscopy (AFM) can measure a force curve between a substrate and a probe in liquid. However, the force curve had not been transformed to the number density distribution of solvent molecules (colloidal particles) on the substance due to the absence of such a transform theory. Recently, we proposed and developed the transform theories for SFA and AFM. In these theories, the force curve is transformed to the pressure between two flat walls. Next, the pressure is transformed to number density distribution of solvent molecules (colloidal particles). However, pair potential between the solvent molecule (colloidal particle) and the wall is needed as the input of the calculation and Kirkwood superposition approximation is used in the previous theories. In this letter, we propose a new theory that does not use both the pair potential and the approximation. Instead, it makes use of a structure factor between solvent molecules (colloidal particles) which can be obtained by X-ray or neutron scattering. MAIN TEXT Structure of solid-liquid interface has relationship with physical properties and reactions at interfaces. Measurement of the density distribution of solvent molecules at the interface is important to understand them. Furthermore, the density distribution of colloid particles on solids or membranes is important for study of soft matter.
