In Chemistry, What Is Miscibility? Why Don't They Dissolve? Like Dissolves

In Chemistry, What is Miscibility? Article from Frostburg University Miscibility is the ability of two liquids to mix with each to form a homogeneous solution. Water and ethanol, for example, are miscible. They can be mixed in any proportion, and the resulting solution will be clear and show only one phase. Oil and water, on the other hand, are immiscible. A mixture of vegetable oil and water will always separate into two layers, and won't dissolve in each other. Other solvents are only partially miscible, meaning that only some portion will dissolve in water. Most of the liquids encountered in everyday life are either water-based, called aqueous, or organic, which in the chemical sense means they contain carbon atoms. These can generally be divided into two broad classes. They're either polar or nonpolar. Polar molecules are molecules that have a positive end and a negative end. Nonpolar molecules do not have positive and negative ends. They have the same charge or no charge throughout the molecule. Why don’t they dissolve? Like dissolves Like! Polar solvents are miscible with polar solutes. Nonpolar solvents are miscible with nonpolar solutes. Polar solutes like salt, NaCl, is easily dissolved by polar solvents like water. The figure to the left shows how water molecules dissolve a salt crystal because of the polarity. The positive end of water molecules are attracted to the negative chlorine ions and the negative end of the water molecules are attracted to positive sodium ions. Immiscible solvents are those that do not mix. Water and oil are immiscible because water is polar and oil is nonpolar. .

Mansour, A.M. Al- Sabagh, S.M. Desouky, F.M. Zawawy, M.R. Ramzi The term of “Enhanced Oil Recovery” (EOR) is defined as Abstract— At the present time, carbon dioxide (CO2) miscible the oil that was recovered by any method beyond the primary flooding has become an important method in Enhanced Oil and secondary stage [2]. Enhanced oil recovery processes are Recovery (EOR) for recovering residual oil, and in addition it divided into three categories: gas miscible flooding, thermal may help in protection of the environment as carbon dioxide flooding and chemical flooding [3]. Figure (1) shows oil (CO2) is widely viewed as an important agent in global production from different (EOR) projects with an increasing warming. This paper presents a study of the effect of carbon dioxide (CO ) injection on miscible flooding performance for in the world oil percentage. [4-7]. 2 Egyptian oil fields and focuses on designing and constructing a new miscibility lab with low cost by setup a favorable system for carbon dioxide (CO2) injection to predict the minimum miscibility pressure (MMP) which was required for carbon dioxide (CO2) flooding projects where every reservoir oil sample has its own unique minimum miscibility pressure (MMP). Experimental data from different crude oil reservoirs carried out by slim tube test that is the most common and standard technique of determining minimum miscibility pressure (MMP) in the industry, but this method is expensive, there for we designed this kind of a favorable system (slim tube test) for carbon dioxide (CO2) injection.

Ordering Tendencies in Pd-Pt, Rh-Pt, and Ag-Au Alloys Z.W
Section I: Basic and Applied Research Ordering Tendencies in Pd-Pt, Rh-Pt, and Ag-Au Alloys Z.W. Lu and B.M. Klein Department of Physics University of California Davis, CA 95616 and A. Zunger National Renewable Energy Laboratory Golden, CO 80401 (Submitted October 7, 1994; in revised form November 9, 1994) First-principles quantum-mechanical calculations indicate that the mixing enthalpies for Pd-Pt and Rh-Pt solid solutions are negative, in agreement with experiment. Calculations of the diffuse-scatter- ing intensity due to short-range order also exhibits ordering tendencies. Further, the directly calcu- lated enthalpies of formation of ordered intermetallic compounds are negative. These ordering tendencies are in direct conflict with a 1959 prediction of Raub that Pd-Pt and Rh-Pt will phase-sepa- rate below ~760 ~ (hence their mixing energy will be positive), a position that has been adopted by all binary alloy phase diagram compilations. The present authors predict that Pdl_xPtx will order in the Llz,Llo, and L12 structures ([001] superstructures)at compositionsx = 4' 2' and 4' respectively, I I while the ordered structures of Rhx_/Ptx are predicted to be superlattices stacked along the [012] di- rections. While the calculated ordering temperatures for these intermetallic compounds are too low to enable direct growth into the ordered phase, diffuse-scattering experiments at higher tempera- tures should reveal ordering rather than phase-separation characteristics (i.e., off-F peaks). The situation is very similar to the case of Ag-Au, where an ordering tendency is manifested both by a dif- fuse scattering intensity and by a negative enthalpy of mixing.

Experiment 3: Studying Density, Miscibility and Solubility of Liquids
04Lab | Experiment 3: Studying Density, Miscibility and Solubility of liquids Objective The goal of this experiment is to determine the densities of three unknown liquid, test the miscibility of each liquid to each other and the solubility of iodine in each liquid. Materials o Three 13 x 100 mm Test tubes o One 18 x 150 mm Test tubes o 10 mL plastic graduated cylinder o Stirring Rod o Berel Pipets o Liquid- A o Liquid - B o Liquid - C o Iodine Crystals o Distilled water Introduction Reading: Ch 2.4 & Ch 9.3, Chemistry in our Lives Timberlake . “Matter & Energy.” Pay special attention to the sections on solubility found in chapter 9.3. Density, Miscibility and Solubility How do water and oil mix at the molecular level? Does oil sink or float in water? Are the two liquids miscible in each other? The answer to these questions will be investigated in this experiment. Physical properties such as densities and miscibility of various liquids in water may help provide answers to these questions. An observable (or measurable) property of matter i.e., color, bpt, mpt, conductivity, texture, miscibility specific heat and density are important in helping identify different substances and how they interact with each other. Consider what occurs when vinegar and oil are mixed in Italian salad dressing. The oil floats on top and the vinegar and the herbs sinks to the bottom. We say that the oil is less dense than the vinegar. We can also state that oil and vinegar are immiscible. Density (d or �) is defined as the mass per unit volume.

Here, using all-atom molecular dynamics simulations, we probe the structural and dynamical behavior of the binary system in the temperature regime of this gap at four different mass ratios, and we compare the behavior of bulk water and tetrahydrofuran. The changes in structure and dynamics observed in the simulations indicate that the temperature region associated with the miscibility gap is distinctive. Within the miscibility-gap temperature region, the self- diffusion of water is significantly altered and the second virial coefficients (pair- interaction strengths) show parabolic-like behavior. Overall, the results suggest that the gap is the result of differing trends with temperature of minor structural changes, which produces interaction virials with parabolic temperature dependence near the miscibility gap. ■ INTRODUCTION presence of voids,9,10,13 a preferred T-like orientation for 9,10 Tetrahydrofuran (THF) is a ubiquitous organic solvent.

Miscibility Gaps in Fused Salts. Note XI. Systems Formed with Silver
Miscibility Gaps in Fused Salts. Note XI. Systems Formed with Silver Halides and Lithium or Sodium Halides Giorgio Flor, Chiara Margheritis, Giuseppina Campari Vigano', and Cesare Sinistri Centro di studio per la termodinamica ed elettrochimica dei sistemi salini fusi e solidi del C.N.R. Institute of Physical Chemistry, University of Pavia, Italy Z. Naturforsch. 37 a, 1068-1072 (1982); received June 3, 1982 The salt families formed with silver halides and lithium or sodium halides were studied in order to investigate demixing in the liquid state. In particular, measurements were carried out on the stable diagonals of the 12 pertinent reciprocal ternaries. Liquid-liquid equilibria were found to occur in the 10 mixtures containing LiF, NaF, LiCl, LiBr and NaCl (the last one only in the presence of Agl). The miscibility gap, however, could be fully measured only on the four mixtures AgBr-(-LiCl, Agl + LiCl, Agl + LiBr and Agl + NaCl: for these and for the mixture Agl + NaBr an "a priori" prediction of the gap was possible on the basis of current thermodynamic theories. The systematic analysis of demixing in mixtures Apparatus and Materials of fused salts is continued with the present paper The apparatus and the experimental technique which reports on the families formed with silver (based on the direct visual observation of the sample, halides and lithium or sodium halides. possibly supported by DTA measurements) were In each of the two groups of reciprocal ternaries described in previous papers of this series [3]. AgX + LiY and AgX + NaY (X, Y = F, CI, Br, I), The salts used were Merck Suprapur lithium and 4 binaries with a common ion, 6 unstable diagonals sodium halides and Fluka puriss.

Physical Pharmacy
Physical pharmacy Lec 1 dr basam al zayady Solubility and Distribution Phenomena Solubility is defined in quantitative terms as the concentration of solute in a saturated solution at a certain temperature, and in a qualitative way, it can be defined as the spontaneous interaction of two or more substances to form a homogeneous molecular dispersion. Solubility is an intrinsic material property that can be altered only by chemical modification of the molecule, in contrast to this, dissolution is an extrinsic material property that can be influenced by various chemical, physical, or crystallographic means such as complexation, particle size, surface properties, solid-state modification, or solubilization enhancing formulation strategies. The solubility of a compound depends on the physical and chemical properties of the solute and the solvent as well as on such factors as temperature, pressure, the pH of the solution The thermodynamic solubility of a drug in a solvent is the maximum amount of the most stable crystalline form that remains in solution in a given volume of the solvent at a given temperature and pressure under equilibrium conditions. Thermodynamic equilibrium is achieved when the overall lowest energy state of the system is achieved. This means that only the equilibrium solubility reflects the 1 balance of forces between the solution and the most stable, lowest energy crystalline form of the solid. Solubility Expressions The solubility of a drug may be expressed in a number of ways. The United States Pharmacopeia (USP) describes the solubility of drugs as parts of solvent required for one part solute. Solubility is also quantitatively expressed in terms of molality, molarity, and percentage.
