Gases and dilute solutions

In the preceding, the simple case was considered of a conversion that is complete, and from beginning to end sufiers no variation qualitatively. The moving force is then the same through the whole period of change, and is 

As the case previously explained was comparable with fusion and solidification, and the velocity then discussed with the rate of solidification, so here the phenomena may be brought into delation with the physical phenomenon of evaporation, which, in analogy with the change of moving force just referred to, goes more slowly up to the occurrence of equilibrium, here reached when the vapour pressure has risen to a maximum. 

In the latter cases the velocity seems to depend on the difference between two functions of the concentration of the two transforming states of aggregation or systems functions whose equality causes the equilibrium. The velocity is proportional to the difference of velocities, provided there is no other changing factor during the conversion b 

The matter is simplest in the act of evaporation equilibrium occurs when the maximum pressure (P) of the evaporating body is equal to the pressure of the vapour the rate of evaporation is proportional to the difference between the two quantities, a relation on which the psychro-meter of August is based that is, 

Quite the same relation was found by Noyes and Whitney for the rate of solution of benzoic acid and of lead chloride, since it proved to be proportional to the

According to a theory of Debye for polar gases and dilute solutions, the complex dielectric constant is related to the frequency as shown by Eq. 5.59. 

Because the theory of the liquid state is not nearly so well developed as the kinetic theory of gases, estimation methods for liquid diffusion coefficients are not as reliable as those used for gases. For dilute solutions of non-electrolytes, one widely used correlation is that due to Wilke and Chang[48]... 

The phenomenon occurs for solids, liquids, and gases. Because this chapter is concerned with ionic solutions, the material here is limited to liquids and dilute solutions.

Solvent. For all practical purposes, NMR spectra are recorded in solution, although pure ( neat ) liquids and even gases can, in principle, also be examined. The solvents must meet certain requirements (Sec. 12.1) and a compromise must often be employed between using concentrated solutions (for high sensitivity) and dilute solutions (for measuring chemical shifts uninfluenced by solute-solute interactions). Besides the commonly used carbon tetrachloride, deuterochloroform, and D2O, a range of deuterated solvents (dimethyl sulfoxide, benzene, pyridine, acetone, dioxane) is commercially available. It must be emphasized that direct comparison of chemical shifts obtained in different solvents is invalid, as solvent-induced changes of up to... 

Now you begin to ask about the conditions and species of the process What are the temperatures and pressures relative to the melting and critical values Are the compositions nearly pure or very dilute Are the molecules of the substances likely to associate with themselves or solvate with others Are there to be additional solvents and what are their properties You also formulate relevant "always true" relations and you begin to consider appropriate models for nonideal gases and nonideal solutions. These questions can usually be answered by elementary analysis, shrewd selection of property formulation, reasonable estimates of property values, and thoughtful evaluation of the results. In this way you should be able to address and prioritize the overwhelming number of questions that always arise in a new undertaking. 

The Kerr constant is evaluated theoretically by means of a formula derived by Bom and Langevin, which relates primarily to systems with vanishing intermolecular reciprocal action— ideal gases or dilute solutions the form is... 

At sufficiently large strains, all solids deviate from Hooke s law. Many fluids, however, show no departures from Newtonian behavior under observable flow conditions. All gases and ordinary (nonmacromolecular) liquids are Newtonian, as are most dilute dispersions and dilute solutions of macromolecules. Viscosities of Newtonian fluids can be determined through a wide variety of methods. Many of these methods are absolute, in that the viscosity can be directly calculated from experimental measurements, without the need for calibration with a sample of known viscosity. 

To proceed fiirther, to evaluate the standard free energy AG , we need infonnation (experimental or theoretical) about the particular reaction. One source of infonnation is the equilibrium constant for a chemical reaction involving gases. Previous sections have shown how the chemical potential for a species in a gaseous mixture or in a dilute solution (and the corresponding activities) can be defined and measured. Thus, if one can detennine (by some kind of analysis)... 

Substances at high dilution, e.g. a gas at low pressure or a solute in dilute solution, show simple behaviour. The ideal-gas law and Henry s law for dilute solutions antedate the development of the fonualism of classical themiodynamics. Earlier sections in this article have shown how these experimental laws lead to simple dieniiodynamic equations, but these results are added to therniodynaniics they are not part of the fonualism. Simple molecular theories, even if they are not always recognized as statistical mechanics, e.g. the kinetic theory of gases , make the experimental results seem trivially obvious. 

The practical problems He ia the separatioa of the chlorine from the hydrogea chloride and nitrous gases. The dilute nitric acid must be reconcentrated and corrosion problems are severe. Suggested improvements iaclude oxidation of concentrated solutions of chlorides, eg, LiCl, by nitrates, followed by separation of chlorine from nitrosyl chloride by distillation at 135°C, or oxidation by a mixture of nitric and sulfuric acids, separating the... 

For example, the measurements of solution osmotic pressure made with membranes by Traube and Pfeffer were used by van t Hoff in 1887 to develop his limit law, which explains the behavior of ideal dilute solutions. This work led direcdy to the van t Hoff equation. At about the same time, the concept of a perfectly selective semipermeable membrane was used by MaxweU and others in developing the kinetic theory of gases. 

For dilute concentrations of manv gases and over a fairly wide range for some gases, the equihbrium relationship is given by Henry s law, which relates the partial pressure developed by a dissolved solute A in a liquid solvent B by one of the following equations ... 

B. a-Hydroxyphenazine (demethylalion). A solution of 4.2 g. (0.02 mole) of a-methoxyphenazine, from A above, in 125 ml. of 55% hydrobromic acid (Note 7) is placed in a 250-ml. round-bottomed flask fitted with a reflux condenser. The flask is immersed in an oil bath, and the solution is heated to 110-120° for 5 hours the evolved gases are absorbed with water in a trap. The reaction mixture is cooled to room temperature, diluted with about 125 ml. of water, almost neutralized with sodium hydro.xide (Note 8), and extracted six times with 30- to 40-ml. portions of ether. The combined ether extracts arc extracted with 25-ml. portions of 10% sodium hydroxide solution (Note 9) until no more purple sodium salt is remox ed from the ether. The aqueous extracts are combined, made acid to litmus with dilute acetic acid, and re-extracted four times with 50-ml. portions of ether. The combined ether extracts are dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, and the ether is removed by distillation on a steam bath. The residue is recrystallized as follows It is dissolved in the least possible amount of hot alcohol, water... 

This condensate was washed with dilute caustic soda solution and dried over calcium chloride. The exit gases from this condenser were scrubbed with water and dilute caustic soda solution, dried and passed to a condenser cooled with a mixture of solid carbon dioxide and trichloroethylene which caused the unchanged 1,1,1-trifluoro-2-chloroethane to condense. This second condensate was then combined with the first and the mixture was fractionally distilled. 

Lord Ivelvin has pointed out that the similarity between the laws of gases and of dilute solutions carries with it no inference as to physical similarity between the states, although Boltzmann has developed a theory of osmotic phenomena which regards the pressure as due to a bombardment of the semipermeable wall by the molecules of dissolved solute, whilst it is subjected to equal and opposite forces by bombardment from the solvent molecules inside and outside.
