Partial Molar Volume of That Component Chapter 6 Chemical Potential in Mixtures Partial molar quantities Thermodynamics of mixing The chemical potentials of liquids Chapter 7 : Slide 1 Duesberg, Chemical Thermodynamics Concentration Units • There are three major concentration units in use in thermodynamic descriptions of solutions. • These are – molarity – molality – mole fraction • Letting J stand for one component in a solution (the solute), these are represented by • [J] = nJ/V (V typically in liters) • bJ = nJ/msolvent (msolvent typically in kg) • xJ = nJ/n (n = total number of moles of all species present in sample) PARTIAL MOLAR QUANTITIES Recall our use of partial pressures: p = xA p + xB p + … pA = xA p is the partial pressure For binary mixtures (A+B): xA + xB= 1 We can define other partial quantities… Chapter 7 : Slide 3 Duesberg, Chemical Thermodynamics PARTIAL MOLAR QUANTITIES: Volume In a system that contains at least two substances, the total value of any extensive property of the system is the sum of the contribution of each substance to that property. The contribution of one mole of a substance to the volume of a mixture is called the partial molar volume of that component. V f p,T,nA,nB...

Note the different composition . scales (water on the left, ethanol on : the right). Exercise Calculate the density of a mixture of 20 g of water and 100g of ethanol. MM: EtOH: 46.07g/mol d=0.789 g/ml • First calculate the mole fractions. – 20 g H2O = 1.11 mol; – 100 g EtOH = 2.17 mol – xH2O = 0.34; xEtOH = 0.66 • Then interpolate from the mixing curve 3 -1 – VH2O = 17.1 cm mol ; 3 -1 – VEtOH = 57.4 cm mol • Then plug the moles and partial molar volume – (1.11 mol)(17.1 cm3/mol) + (2.17 mol)(57.4 cm3/mol) =18.1 cm3 + 125 cm3 = 143.1 cm3 • Finally, the total mass is divided by the total volume: 120 g/143 cm3 = 0.84 g/ cm3 Task: You mix 300 ml alcohol with a bottle of juice (water, 0.7 l) - Will you really end up with for your x-mas party supply (1l)? -Of course not… - How much do you have to mix to get 1 l of the same strength? PARTIAL MOLAR QUANTITIES VA is not generally a constant: It is a function of composition, because the environment and therefore their interaction of the molecules changes with the composition : : The partial molar volume of a substance is the slope of the variation of the total volume of the sample plotted against the composition. In general, partial molar quantities vary with the composition, as shown by the different slopes at the compositions a and b. Note that the partial molar volume at b is negative: the overall volume of the sample decreasesChapter 7 : Slide as a9 is added. Duesberg, Chemical Thermodynamics PARTIAL MOLAR QUANTITIES • We can extend the concept of partial molar properties to state functions, such as Gibbs energy, G. Or Chemical Pot m G = nAGA + nBGB or G = nAmA + nBmB Consider this single substance system: m1 m2 dG = -m1 dn dG = +m2 dn Total dG = 0 only if m1 = m2 10 The Partial Molar Gibbs Energy The partial molar Gibbs energy is called the “chemical potential” G f p,T,nA,nB...

Wood Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry University of Delaware Newark, DE 19716, USA 4.1 Introduction Thermodynamic modeling is important for understanding and predicting phase and chemical equilibria in industrial and natural aqueous systems at elevated temperatures and pressures. Such systems contain a variety of organic and inorganic solutes ranging from apolar nonelectrolytes to strong electrolytes; temperature and pressure strongly affect speciation of solutes that are encountered in molecular or ionic forms, or as ion pairs or complexes. Properties related to the Gibbs energy, such as thermodynamic equilibrium constants of hydrothermal reactions and activity coefficients of aqueous species, are required for practical use by geologists, power-cycle chemists and process engineers. Derivative properties (enthalpy, heat capacity and volume), which can be obtained from calorimetric and volumetric experiments, are useful in extrapolations when calculating the Gibbs energy at conditions remote from ambient. They also sensitively indicate evolution in molecular interactions with changing temperature and pressure. In this context, models with a sound theoretical basis are indispensable, describing with a limited number of adjustable parameters all thermodynamic functions of an aqueous system over a wide range of temperature and pressure. In thermodynamics of hydrothermal solutions, the unsymmetric standard-state convention is generally used; in this case, the standard thermodynamic properties (STP) of a solute reflect its interaction with the solvent (water), and the excess properties, related to activity coefficients, correspond to solute-solute interactions.

Introduction Thermodynamics is used to determine the feasibility of the reaction, that is , whether the process is spontaneous or not. It is used to predict the direction in which the process will be spontaneous. Sign of internal energy alone cannot determine the spontaneity of a reaction. The concept of entropy was introduced in second law of thermodynamics. Whenever a process occurs spontaneously, then it is considered as an irreversible process.

Yau; R&Y Thermodynamics of Atmospheres Fundamentals of Atmospheric Physics, and Oceanes, M.L. Salby; Salby J.A. Curry and P.J. Webster; C&W 2 /25 LECTURE OUTLINE 1. Equilibrium of heterogeneous system 2. Phase transformations Equilibrium conditions for a homogeneous system: • thermal equilibrium • mechanical equilibrium (at most an infinitesimal pressure difference exists between the system and its environment). A heterogeneous system must also be in: • chemical equilibrium. No conversion of mass occurs from one phase to the other. Chemical equilibrium requires a certain state variables to have no difference between the phases present. 4 /30 For a homogeneous system, two intensive properties describe the thermodynamic state. Only two state variables may be varied independently, so a homogeneous system has two thermodynamic degrees of freedom. For a heterogeneous system, each phase may be regarded as a homogeneous sub-system, one that is ‚open’ due to exchanges with the other phases present. The number of intensive properties that describes the thermodynamic state is proportional to the number of phases present. However, thermodynamic equilibrium between phases introduces additional constraints that actually reduce the degrees of freedom of a heterogeneous system below those of a homogeneous system. The system we consider is a two-component mixture of: • dry

Giauque, Nobel Laureate 1949 (as cited in Bent, 1972) iii ABSTRACT Relative densities and relative massic heat capacities have been measured for aqueous solutions of triflic acid (CF3SO3H), sodium triflate (NaCF3SO3), gadolinium triflate (Gd(CF3SO3)3), dysprosium triflate (Dy(CF3SO3)3), neodymium triflate (Nd(CF3SO3)3), erbium triflate (Er(CF3SO3)3), ytterbium triflate (Yb(CF3SO3)3), and yttrium triflate (Y(CF3SO3)3) at T = (288.15, 298.15, 313.15, and 328.15) K and p = 0.1 MPa. The resulting densities and massic heat capacities have been used to calculate out apparent molar volume and apparent molar heat capacity data for each of the investigated aqueous systems. The concentration dependencies of the apparent molar volumes and apparent molar heat capacities have been modeled using Pitzer-ion interaction equations.
