  • Phase Transitions in Multicomponent Systems
    Physics 127b: Statistical Mechanics Phase Transitions in Multicomponent Systems The Gibbs Phase Rule Consider a system with n components (different types of molecules) with r phases in equilibrium. The state of each phase is defined by P,T and then (n − 1) concentration variables in each phase. The phase equilibrium at given P,T is defined by the equality of n chemical potentials between the r phases. Thus there are n(r − 1) constraints on (n − 1)r + 2 variables. This gives the Gibbs phase rule for the number of degrees of freedom f f = 2 + n − r A Simple Model of a Binary Mixture Consider a condensed phase (liquid or solid). As an estimate of the coordination number (number of nearest neighbors) think of a cubic arrangement in d dimensions giving a coordination number 2d. Suppose there are a total of N molecules, with fraction xB of type B and xA = 1 − xB of type A. In the mixture we assume a completely random arrangement of A and B. We just consider “bond” contributions to the internal energy U, given by εAA for A − A nearest neighbors, εBB for B − B nearest neighbors, and εAB for A − B nearest neighbors. We neglect other contributions to the internal energy (or suppose them unchanged between phases, etc.). Simple counting gives the internal energy of the mixture 2 2 U = Nd(xAεAA + 2xAxBεAB + xBεBB) = Nd{εAA(1 − xB) + εBBxB + [εAB − (εAA + εBB)/2]2xB(1 − xB)} The first two terms in the second expression are just the internal energy of the unmixed A and B, and so the second term, depending on εmix = εAB − (εAA + εBB)/2 can be though of as the energy of mixing.

  • Grade 6 Science Mechanical Mixtures Suspensions
    Grade 6 Science Week of November 16 – November 20 Heterogeneous Mixtures Mechanical Mixtures Mechanical mixtures have two or more particle types that are not mixed evenly and can be seen as different kinds of matter in the mixture. Obvious examples of mechanical mixtures are chocolate chip cookies, granola and pepperoni pizza. Less obvious examples might be beach sand (various minerals, shells, bacteria, plankton, seaweed and much more) or concrete (sand gravel, cement, water). Mechanical mixtures are all around you all the time. Can you identify any more right now? Suspensions Suspensions are mixtures that have solid or liquid particles scattered around in a liquid or gas. Common examples of suspensions are raw milk, salad dressing, fresh squeezed orange juice and muddy water. If left undisturbed the solids or liquids that are in the suspension may settle out and form layers. You may have seen this layering in salad dressing that you need to shake up before using them. After a rain fall the more dense particles in a mud puddle may settle to the bottom. Milk that is fresh from the cow will naturally separate with the cream rising to the top. Homogenization breaks up the fat molecules of the cream into particles small enough to stay suspended and this stable mixture is now a colloid. We will look at colloids next. Solution, Suspension, and Colloid: https://youtu.be/XEAiLm2zuvc Colloids Colloids: https://youtu.be/MPortFIqgbo Colloids are two phase mixtures. Having two phases means colloids have particles of a solid, liquid or gas dispersed in a continuous phase of another solid, liquid, or gas.

  • Gp-Cpc-01 Units – Composition – Basic Ideas
    GP-CPC-01 UNITS – BASIC IDEAS – COMPOSITION 11-06-2020 Prof.G.Prabhakar Chem Engg, SVU GP-CPC-01 UNITS – CONVERSION (1) ➢ A two term system is followed. A base unit is chosen and the number of base units that represent the quantity is added ahead of the base unit. Number Base unit Eg : 2 kg, 4 meters , 60 seconds ➢ Manipulations Possible : • If the nature & base unit are the same, direct addition / subtraction is permitted 2 m + 4 m = 6m ; 5 kg – 2.5 kg = 2.5 kg • If the nature is the same but the base unit is different , say, 1 m + 10 c m both m and the cm are length units but do not represent identical quantity, Equivalence considered 2 options are available. 1 m is equivalent to 100 cm So, 100 cm + 10 cm = 110 cm 0.01 m is equivalent to 1 cm 1 m + 10 (0.01) m = 1. 1 m • If the nature of the quantity is different, addition / subtraction is NOT possible. Factors used to check equivalence are known as Conversion Factors. GP-CPC-01 UNITS – CONVERSION (2) • For multiplication / division, there are no such restrictions. They give rise to a set called derived units Even if there is divergence in the nature, multiplication / division can be carried out. Eg : Velocity ( length divided by time ) Mass flow rate (Mass divided by time) Mass Flux ( Mass divided by area (Length 2) – time). Force (Mass * Acceleration = Mass * Length / time 2) In derived units, each unit is to be individually converted to suit the requirement Density = 500 kg / m3 .

  • 42 the Reaction Between Zinc and Copper Oxide
    The reaction between zinc and copper oxide 42 In this experiment copper(II) oxide and zinc metal are reacted together. The reaction is exothermic and the products can be clearly identified. The experiment illustrates the difference in reactivity between zinc and copper and hence the idea of competition reactions. Lesson organisation This is best done as a demonstration. The reaction itself takes only three or four minutes but the class will almost certainly want to see it a second time. The necessary preparation can usefully be accompanied by a question and answer session. The zinc and copper oxide can be weighed out beforehand but should be mixed in front of the class. If a video camera is available, linked to a TV screen, the ‘action’ can be made more dramatic.

  • Changes: Physical Or Chemical? by Cindy Grigg
    Changes: Physical or Chemical? By Cindy Grigg 1 If you have studied atoms, you know that atoms are the building blocks of matter. Atoms are so small they cannot be seen with an ordinary microscope. Yet atoms make up everything in the universe. Atoms can combine with different atoms and make new substances. Substances can also break apart into separate atoms. These changes are called chemical changes or reactions. Chemical reactions happen when atoms gain, lose, or share electrons. What about when water freezes into ice? Do you think that's a chemical change? 2 When water freezes, it has changed states. You probably already know about the four states of matter. They are solid, liquid, gas, and plasma. Plasma is the fourth state of matter and is the most common state in the universe. However, it is rarely found on Earth. Plasma occurs as ball lightning and in stars. Water is a common substance that everyone has seen in its three states of matter. Water in its solid state is called ice. Water in the liquid state is just called water. Water as a gas is called water vapor. We can easily cause water to change states by changing its temperature. Water will freeze at 32 degrees Fahrenheit (0 Celsius). However, no chemical change has occurred. The atoms have not combined or broken apart to make a different substance; it is still water or H2O. When we heat water to a temperature of 212 F. or 100 Celsius, it will change into a gas called water vapor. Changes in states of matter are just physical changes.

  • Solving Mixture and Solution Verbal Problems
    SOLVING SOLUTION AND MIXTURE VERBAL PROBLEMS This type of problem involves mixing two different solutions of a certain ingredient to get a desired concentration of the ingredient. Before we can solve problems that involve concentrations, we must review certain concepts about percents. If you need to do this, go to the brush-up materials for solving percent problems on the Dolciani website. 1. Solution Problems Basic Equation: amount of solution concentration of substance = amount of substance Example: 40 ounces (amount of solution) of a 25% solution of acid (concentration) contains 25(40) = 10 ounces of acid Usual equation to solve for the variable: Amount of substance in solution 1 + Amount of substance in solution 2 = Amount of substance in solution 2. Mixture Problems Basic Equation: unit price # units = cost (or value) Example: 5 pounds of apples (# units) that sell for $1.20 per pound (unit price) costs 5(1.20) = $6 Using equation to solve for the variable: Cost of ingredient 1 + Cost of ingredient 2 = Cost of mixture Now let’s look at an actual mixture problem. It is easiest when solving a mixture problem to make a table to get the information organized. No matter the story line of the problem, the table can be used and labelled as necessary. Let’s look at a few examples. Example 1: Fatima’s chemistry lab stocks an 8% acid solution and a 20% acid solution. How many ounces of each must she combine to produce 60 ounces of a mixture that is 10% acid? Solution: We want to find how much of each solution must be in the mixture.

The properties of materials can be used to classify them into categories. Each material is made of a pure substance or of a mix of substances. A substance is a type of matter that is always made of the same material or materials. A substance can be either an element or a compound. Some substances you might recognize are helium, aluminum, water, and salt. What are elements? All substances are made of atoms. A substance is an element if all the atoms in the substance are the same. The graphite in your pencil is an element. The copper coating on most pennies is an element, too.
