Liquids and Solutions Flashcards
What is an extensive/intensive variable?
Extensive - depends on size of system
Intensive - doesn’t depend on size
What are some examples of intensive and extensive variables?
Extensive: A, V, n (therefore dA, dV, dn)
Intensive: T, P, μ
What is the condition for chemical eqm?
μiα = μiβ
where μ is derivative of G wrt n
What is an ideal solution?
Equivalent to ideal gas
All interactions are the same - molecule 1 doesn’t care if surrounded by 1 or 2
Ideal entory of mixing
What is the ΔmH (of mixing) in an ideal solution?
ΔmH = 0
As all interactions are the same
What is the model used for ideal ΔmS?
Lattice model of a binary mixture
N1</sub molecules of type 1
N2 molcules of type 2
N lattice sites
Random mixing
What is Boltzmann’s eqn of entropy?
S = kb lnΩ
Ω = number of ways you can realise a given conformation
Ω = N!/[N1!N2!]
What is the ideal ΔmS?
ΔmS = -R[n1lnx1 + n2lnx2]
where ΔmS = Smix - Sunmix
What is x and sterling’s approx?
x is mole fraction
For small values of x:
lnx! = xlnx - x
What is the ΔmG of an ideal solution?
ΔmG = ΔmH - TΔmS = 0 + RT[n1lnx1 + n2lnx2]
Totally entropic
What is the μ of an ideal solution?
μ = (δG/δn)
G = Gunmix +RT[n1lnx1 + n2lnx2]
μ = μi + RTlnxi
Vapour pressure linearly related to molar pressure
What is Raoult’s law?
For an ideal solution on a boundary with ideal gas
Pi = xiPi*
How can you derive Raoult’s law?
μisolution = μivapor
Gas and solution is ideal
1) μi*
+ RTlnxi = μθ + RTln(Pi/Pθ)
2 (when @xi)) μi*
= μθ + RTln(Pi/Pθ)
1-2 so:
RTlnxi = RTln(Pi/Pθ) - RTln(Pi*
/Pθ)
gives:
xi = Pi/Pi*
How does a solid in an ideal solution change temeprature?
Solid is solvent
ΔT = T - T*
= - X2 (RT*
2/ΔfusH)
where T*
is the freezing point of water, and X2 is mole fraction of ideal solution
What is a non-ideal solution?
Interactions not identical
Non-ideal entropy of mixing
Combination of both
What is a regular solution?
Same as ideal soltuion but interactions not identical
so Δm =! 0
How is a polymer solution different to an ideal one?
Non-ideal (so different) entropy of mixing
What is the potential of a non-ideal solution?
μi = μi*
+ RTlnki + RTlnfi
where the activity coefficient is fi
What is Henry’s law?
Pi = xiKH
Not derived
When component is the minority - so linear vapour pressure when low or high x
When is Raoult’s and Henry’s law followed?
Roult’s - for a substance when pure (xi~1)
Henry’s law - for a substance when in minority (xi~0)
What is ΔmS in a regular solution?
Same as ideal
ΔmS = -R[n1lnx1 + n2lnx2]
How do you derive the sum of interactions, w, in a regular solution?
ΔH = Hmix - Hunmix
Hunmix = (1/2)zN1w11 + (1/2)zNw2w22 = (z/2)(N1+N2)(w11x1 + w22x2)
Hmix = (z/2)(N1+N2)(w11x12 + w22x22 + 2w12x1x2
Then work out difference and eventually gives
ΔmH = z(n1+n2)x1x2 [w12 - (w11+w22)/2]
What is sum of interactions in a regular solution?
w = NAz[w12 - (w11+w22)/2]
What model is used for the enthalpy of mixing in a regular solution?
Lattice model of binary mix
