carbon disulphide and propanone, and negative deviations, e.g. In the common situation where it is not obeyed there are two types of behaviour, positive deviations, e.g. Only for very similar pairs of liquids, e.g.dibromoethane and dibromopropane, is Raoult's Law obeyed over the whole range of mole fraction. When ΔH is zero the vapour pressures on the right hand side coincide with the ideal (black) values and conform to Raoult's Law over the whole composition range. TΔS and ΔG are also shown on the left hand side. When you do this you will see that the enthalpy of mixing is zero (left hand graph). In an ideal solution there is no interaction and hence ideal behaviour is obtained by setting the Interaction Parameter to zero. The diagram deals with the vapour pressures of ideal and regular solutions and can illustrate a wide range of situation. The applet (adjustable diagram) shows how the vapour pressures of solvent and solute behave in a mixture ( Click here for notes about the use of java applets and click here for other physical chemistry applets). Where p A o is the vapour pressure of pure solvent, i.e.Ī solution behaves ideally if it obeys Raoult's Law. for the pure substance, this equation becomes It then depends on what units are chosen for p A. The standard state of the vapour is when p A = 1, since that is when the ln term vanishes. The chemical potential of the vapour depends on the pressure of the vapour The chemical potentials of solvent in solution and in the vapour. Raoult's Law (Vapour pressure of the solvent) With similar conditions for each of the other components. That the chemical potential of component A must be the same in every distributed betweenĭifferent phases, α, β, etc. With different chemical components A, B, etc. The same is true for the chemical potential. AtĮquilibrium the temperature and pressure of different parts of the system It is comparable with temperature, which is the driving potentialīehind heat transfer, and with pressure, which drives volume changes. Transfer of matter between phases (or between chemical entities). The chemical potential is the driving potential behind the The contribution from mixing is obtained as One from the pure component, μ o, and one from the mixing. The chemical potential of a component of a mixture has two contributions, These will be discussed later in the course. The second assumption is obviously wrong, for example for polymer solutions. The first assumption is very difficult to assess. Where φ A and φ B are the volume fractions. Molar volume that is free is the same for A as for B. The first is that the fraction, f, of the the actual volume of a water molecule (taken to be Molecule is about 0.17 nm (OH bondlength + van der Waals radius of H), i.e. The liquid is about 0.03 nm 3 (from the density). To illustrate this difference the volume available to a water molecule in Thus the entropy of mixing of two liquids might be The actual volume because the molecules themselves occupy a significantįraction of the volume. That the volume available for each to expand into is only a proportion of One such approach indicates the difficulties. The same formula can be obtained for equal size atoms in a solid lattice,īut it cannot be derived for a liquid without very large assumptions. To mix the new volume becomes V A + V B and each gas has increased itsĮntropy by expanding into the space occupied by the other If two pure gases A and B occupying volumes V A and V B are allowed From the first andįor an ideal gas PV = nRT and U does not change during a change in volume It is derived as follows.įirst we derive the entropy of expansion of an ideal gas. The entropy of mixing of two ideal gases is identical to the formula assumedįor the ideal mixing of liquids. Justification of the Formula for the Ideal Entropy of Mixing Ideal solution but the enthalpy now depends on composition, The Gibbs free energy is always negative and becomes more negative as the temperature is increased.įor a regular solution the entropy of mixing is the same as for the Since mole fractions are always less than unity, the ln terms are always negative, and the entropy of mixing is always positive. The variation of these quantities is illustrated in the figure below. The Gibbs free energy of mixing is therefore Where x A and x B are the mole fractions of the two components, and The Thermodynamics of Regular and Ideal Solutions Ideal and Regular Solutionsįor an ideal solution the entropy of mixing is assumed to be The Thomas Group - PTCL, Oxford Liquids and Solutions II: 2nd Year Michaelmas Term
