Fugacity state

Some tables list the Gibbs energies of formation for states that are different from the ideal-gas unity fugacity state. Eor example, for substances that are typically solutes, properties at two or more standard states may be given. One standard state is the solute as a pure solid (in the crystalline state) and the other is for the solute in solution at a specified concentration.

A rigorous relation exists between the fugacity of a component in a vapor phase and the volumetric properties of that phase these properties are conveniently expressed in the form of an equation of state. There are two common types of equations of state one of these expresses the volume as a function of... 

It is strictly for convenience that certain conventions have been adopted in the choice of a standard-state fugacity. These conventions, in turn, result from two important considerations (a) the necessity for an unambiguous thermodynamic treatment of noncondensable components in liquid solutions, and (b) the relation between activity coefficients given by the Gibbs-Duhem equation. The first of these considerations leads to a normalization for activity coefficients for nonoondensable components which is different from that used for condensable components, and the second leads to the definition and use of adjusted or pressure-independent activity coefficients. These considerations and their consequences are discussed in the following paragraphs. 

For such components, as the composition of the solution approaches that of the pure liquid, the fugacity becomes equal to the mole fraction multiplied by the standard-state fugacity. In this case,the standard-state fugacity for component i is the fugacity of pure liquid i at system temperature T. In many cases all the components in a liquid mixture are condensable and Equation (13) is therefore used for all components in this case, since all components are treated alike, the normalization of activity coefficients is said to follow the symmetric convention. ... 

Henry s constant is the standard-state fugacity for any component i whose activity coefficient is normalised by Equation (14). ... 

In a binary liquid solution containing one noncondensable and one condensable component, it is customary to refer to the first as the solute and to the second as the solvent. Equation (13) is used for the normalization of the solvent s activity coefficient but Equation (14) is used for the solute. Since the normalizations for the two components are not the same, they are said to follow the unsymmetric convention. The standard-state fugacity of the solvent is the fugacity of the pure liquid. The standard-state fugacity of the solute is Henry s constant. 

The use of Henry s constant for a standard-state fugacity means that the standard-state fugacity for a noncondensable component depends not only on the temperature but also on the nature of the solvent. It is this feature of the unsymmetric convention which is its greatest disadvantage. As a result of this disadvantage special care must be exercised in the use of the unsymmetric convention for multicomponent solutions, as discussed in Chapter 4. 

The standard-state fugacity of any component must be evaluated at the same temperature as that of the solution, regardless of whether the symmetric or unsymmetric convention is used for activity-coefficient normalization. But what about the pressure At low pressures, the effect of pressure on the thermodynamic properties of condensed phases is negligible and under such con-... 

The pressure at which standard-state fugacities are most conveniently evaluated is suggested by considerations based on the Gibbs-Duhem equation which says that at constant temperature and pressure... 

We find that the standard-state fugacity fV is the fugacity of pure liquid i at the temperature of the solution and at the reference pressure P. ...

The fugacity coefficient is a function of temperature, total pressure, and composition of the vapor phase it can be calculated from volumetric data for the vapor mixture. For a mixture containing m components, such data are often expressed in the form of an equation of state explicit in the pressure... 

The fugacity coefficient can be found from the equation of state using the thermodynamic relation (Beattie, 1949) ... 

In some cases, the temperature of the system may be larger than the critical temperature of one (or more) of the components, i.e., system temperature T may exceed T. . In that event, component i is a supercritical component, one that cannot exist as a pure liquid at temperature T. For this component, it is still possible to use symmetric normalization of the activity coefficient (y - 1 as x - 1) provided that some method of extrapolation is used to evaluate the standard-state fugacity which, in this case, is the fugacity of pure liquid i at system temperature T. For highly supercritical components (T Tj,.), such extrapolation is extremely arbitrary as a result, we have no assurance that when experimental data are reduced, the activity coefficient tends to obey the necessary boundary condition 1... 

Enthalpies are referred to the ideal vapor. The enthalpy of the real vapor is found from zero-pressure heat capacities and from the virial equation of state for non-associated species or, for vapors containing highly dimerized vapors (e.g. organic acids), from the chemical theory of vapor imperfections, as discussed in Chapter 3. For pure components, liquid-phase enthalpies (relative to the ideal vapor) are found from differentiation of the zero-pressure standard-state fugacities these, in turn, are determined from vapor-pressure data, from vapor-phase corrections and liquid-phase densities. If good experimental data are used to determine the standard-state fugacity, the derivative gives enthalpies of liquids to nearly the same precision as that obtained with calorimetric data, and provides reliable heats of vaporization. 

Correlations for standard-state fugacities at 2ero pressure, for the temperature range 200° to 600°K, were generated for pure fluids using the best available vapor-pressure data. 

Below the temperature of the lowest experimental datum, standard-state fugacities were obtained by simple extrapolation. Uncertainties assigned to these fugacities are largest when the fugacities are smallest, for two reasons (1) the extrapolation... 

At temperatures above those corresponding to the highest experimental pressures, data were generated using the Lyckman correlation all of these were assigned an uncertainty of 5% of the standard-state fugacity at zero pressure. Frequently, this uncertainty amounts to one half or more atmosphere for the lowest point, and to 1 to 5 atmospheres for the highest point.

PURE calculates pure liquid standard-state fugacities at zero pressure, pure-component saturated liquid molar volume (cm /mole), and pure-component liquid standard-state fugacities at system pressure. Pure-component hypothetical liquid reference fugacities are calculated for noncondensable components. Liquid molar volumes for noncondensable components are taken as zero. 

Standard-state fugacities at zero pressure are evaluated using the Equation (A-2) for both condensable and noncondensable components. The Rackett Equation (B-2) is evaluated to determine the liquid molar volumes as a function of temperature. Standard-state fugacities at system temperature and pressure are given by the product of the standard-state fugacity at zero pressure and the Poynting correction shown in Equation (4-1). Double precision is advisable.
