Introduction In this lecture we will begin the study of simple non-reactive mixtures. To do that we will introduce the concept of partial molar properties. At this stage we deal mainly with binary mixtures, that is: We shall also consider mainly non-electrolyte solutions, where the solute is not present as ions. 2

Partial Molar Volume To understand the concept of partial molar quantities, the easiest property

Partial Molar Volume To understand the concept of partial molar quantities, the easiest property to visualize is the “volume”. When we mix two liquids A and B, we have three possibilities: • Volume contraction • Volume dilatation • No total volume change. In the last case if we mix, for instance, 20 cm 3 of liquid A and 80 cm 3 of liquid B, we will obtain 100 cm 3 of solution. This mean that A…B interactions are equal to A…A or A…B molecular interactions! In most cases that is not going to happen! For instance the molar volume of water is 18 cm 3. mol-1. But if we add 1 mol of water to a huge amount of ethanol the volume will only increase by 14 cm 3. The quantity 14 cm 3 is the partial molar volume of water. 3

Partial Molar Volume The partial molar volumes change with composition because molecular environment also change. For water/ethanol system we have: The partial molar volume of a substance is defined as: Once we know the partial molar volume of two components of a binary mixture we can calculate the total volume: 4

Measuring Partial Molar Volume One method is measuring the dependence of volume on composition

Partial Molar Gibbs Function Another partial molar property, already introduced, is the partial molar

Partial Molar Gibbs Function Another partial molar property, already introduced, is the partial molar Gibbs function or the chemical potential. Then, the total Gibbs function of a mixture is: But we have seen before that (recall the fundamental equations for open systems): 8

Gibbs – Duhem Equation Since G is a state function the previous equations must

Gibbs – Duhem Equation Since G is a state function the previous equations must be equal, and then we obtain: Generalizing: This is the Gibbs – Duhem Equation It tell us that partial molar quantities cannot change independently: in a binary mixture if one increases the other should decrease! It can also be applied to the partial molar volume. 9

Thermodynamics of Mixing Perfect Gases We already now that systems evolves spontaneously to lower

Thermodynamics of Mixing Perfect Gases We already now that systems evolves spontaneously to lower Gibbs energy. If we put together two gases they will spontaneously mix, then G should decrease. Let us consider two perfect gases in two containers at temperature T and pressure p. The initial total Gibbs energy is: 10

Gibbs energy of Mixing After mixing we have: The difference is the Gibbs energy

Gibbs energy of Mixing After mixing we have: The difference is the Gibbs energy of mixing and therefore: Using Dalton´s Law, yi=pi/p, we finally obtain: Since molar fractions are always lower than 1, the Gibbs energy of mixing is always negative! 11

Other Thermodynamic mixing functions Since we easily obtain: Now since ΔH = ΔG +

Other Thermodynamic mixing functions Since we easily obtain: Now since ΔH = ΔG + TΔS: Purely entropic And since for perfect gases ΔGmix is independent of pressure, then: 12

Chemical potential of liquids In order now to study the equilibrium properties of liquid

Chemical potential of liquids In order now to study the equilibrium properties of liquid solutions we need to calculate the chemical potential of a liquid. To do this, we will use the fact that the chemical potential of a substance present as a dilute vapor must be equal to the chemical potential of the liquid, at equilibrium. Remember also that it is usual, in order to characterize a given solution, to distingue between the solvent (usually the substance in bigger quantity or in the same physical state of solution) and solute (in lower quantity or in a different state of aggregation) Important note: We will denote quantities relating to pure substances by the superscript “*” so the chemical potential of a pure liquid A it will be written as μ*A(l). 14

Ideal Solutions For a pure liquid in equilibrium with the vapor we can write:

Ideal Solutions For a pure liquid in equilibrium with the vapor we can write: If another substance is present (solution!) then the chemical potential is: Combining the two equations leads to: ? 15

Ideal Solutions French chemist François Raoult found that the ratio p. A/p. A* is

Ideal Solutions French chemist François Raoult found that the ratio p. A/p. A* is equal to mole fraction of A in the liquid, that is: This equation is known as the Raoult´s Law It follows that for the chemical potential of liquid: This important equation is the definition of ideal solutions Alternatively we may also state that an ideal solution is the on in which all the components obey to the Raoult´s Law. 16

Ideal Dilute Solutions In ideal solutions the solute, as well as the solvent, obeys

Ideal Dilute Solutions In ideal solutions the solute, as well as the solvent, obeys Raoult´s Law. But in some cases, in non-ideal solutions, the partial pressure of solute is proportional to the mole fraction but the constant of proportionality is not the pure component vapor pressure but a constant, known as the Henry´s constant, KB: This is known as the Henry`s Law. Mixtures obeying to the Henry`s Law are called ideal dilute solutions. 19

Ideal Mixture of Liquids When two liquids are separated we have: When they are

Ideal Mixture of Liquids When two liquids are separated we have: When they are mixed we have: As a consequence: This equation is the same as that for two perfect gases! All the other conclusions are equally valid. The “driving” force for mixing is the increase of entropy. 21

Excess Functions Real solutions have different molecular interactions between A…A, A…B and B…B particles.

Excess Functions Real solutions have different molecular interactions between A…A, A…B and B…B particles. As a consequence ΔH≠ 0 and ΔV≠ 0. For instance if ΔH is positive (endothermic) and ΔS negative (“clustering”) ΔG is positive and the liquids are immiscible. Alternatively the liquids can be only partially miscible. Thermodynamic properties of real solutions can be expressed in terms of excess functions (GE, SE, etc. ). For example for entropy: In this context the concept of regular solutions is very important. In this solutions HE≠ 0 but the SE=0. 22

Examples These figure shows experimental excess functions at 25 ºC. HE values for benzene/ cyclohexane show that the mixing is endothermic (since ΔH=0 for an ideal solution). VE for tetrachloroethene/cyclopentane shows that there is a contraction at lower mole fractions of tetrachloroethene but expansion at higher mole fractions (because ΔV=0 for an ideal solution) 23

Solutions containing non-volatile solutes Let us now consider a solution in which the solute

Solutions containing non-volatile solutes Let us now consider a solution in which the solute is non-volatile, so it does not contribute to the vapor pressure, and it does not dissolve in solid sovent. Recalling that the chemical potential of liquid A in solution is: We can conclude that the chemical potential in the liquid solvent is lower that the chemical potential of pure liquid (remember that x. A<1). These give origin to a set of properties of this solutions that are called colligative properties For instance the vapor pressure lowering: lowering or 24

Colligative Properties All colligative properties have in common that they only depend on the

Colligative Properties All colligative properties have in common that they only depend on the amount of solute but not on the particular substance. The other colligative properties are: Boiling point elevation, elevation Freezing point depression and Osmotic pressure Graphically we can observe the first two properties: Effect of the solute 25

The elevation of boiling point The heterogeneous equilibrium that maters when considering boiling is

The elevation of boiling point The heterogeneous equilibrium that maters when considering boiling is the solvent vapor and the solvent in the solution. The equilibrium condition is: 26

The elevation of boiling point This rearranges to: When x. B=0 , the boiling

The elevation of boiling point This rearranges to: When x. B=0 , the boiling point is that of pure liquid, Tb, and: The difference between the two equations is 27

The elevation of boiling point Assuming now dilute solutions, that is, x. B<<1, then

The elevation of boiling point Assuming now dilute solutions, that is, x. B<<1, then ln(1 -x. B) ≈ -x. B, so: Since T ≈ Tb we can also write: Which gives: This means that the elevation of boiling point, ΔT, depends on x B (no reference to the identity of solute, the other properties are related to the solvent!) 28

The elevation of boiling point We can also calculate the elevation of boiling point

The elevation of boiling point We can also calculate the elevation of boiling point in terms of the molality of the solute, m. B. Since the mole fraction of solute is small n. A >> n. B, so: Therefore we obtain: Boling point elevation can now be calculated by: or Kb is the molal ebullioscopic constant 29

Osmosis We have shown that boiling point and freezing point depends on the equilibrium

Osmosis We have shown that boiling point and freezing point depends on the equilibrium between the solvent in solution and in the solid or vapor state. The last possibility is to have an equilibrium between the solvent in solution and the pure solvent. This is the basis of the phenomenon of osmosis This consists in the passage of a pure solvent into the solution separated from it by a semipermeable membrane. h Π = ρhg is the osmotic pressure μA*(p, T) μA(p+π, T) 33

Osmotic pressure The equilibrium condition is: From these equation we can easily obtain: For

Osmotic pressure The equilibrium condition is: From these equation we can easily obtain: For dilute solutions ln x. A = ln (1 -x. B) ≈ -x. B, so, assuming that Vm is constant: Now, since x. B ≈ n. B/n. A and n. AVm = V, we finally obtain: This is the van`t Hoff equation for osmotic pressure. Note the remarkable similitude with the perfect gas equation! 34

Applications Van`t Hoff equation can be rewritten as: This is a very useful equation

Applications Van`t Hoff equation can be rewritten as: This is a very useful equation for the determination of molar mass of polymers and other macromolecules, assuming dilute solutions and incompressible solutions. Other application is the reverse or inverse osmosis, osmosis If we apply from the solution side a pressure bigger than the osmotic pressure we will reverse the passage of water molecules. This can be used to obtain fresh water from sea water ( π≈ 30 to 50 atm) 35

Ideal solubility of solids Although is not strictly a colligative property the solubility of a solid can be estimated by the same techniques of previous slides. In contact with a liquid the solid will dissolve until the solution is saturated. The equilibrium condition is: From this starting point and using similar deduction we will obtain: Being the properties related only to the solute. 36
