Hales, Lees, and Ruxton measured the vapour heat capacities and enthalpies of vaporization of diethyl ketone, ethyl propyl ketone, and methyl isopropyl ketone. Nickerson, Kobe, and McKetta made measurements on methyl ethyl ketone and methyl propyl ketone, and Pennington and Kobe made measurements on acetone. Hales, Lees, and Ruxton suggest that enough results are now available to calculate the ideal heat capacities of higher ketones in the temperature range 350 to 500 K.

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. 

The heat capacity of an ideal vapor is a monotonic function of temperature in this work it is expressed by the empirical relation... 

This chapter presents quantitative methods for calculation of enthalpies of vapor-phase and liquid-phase mixtures. These methods rely primarily on pure-component data, in particular ideal-vapor heat capacities and vapor-pressure data, both as functions of temperature. Vapor-phase corrections for nonideality are usually relatively small. Liquid-phase excess enthalpies are also usually not important. As indicated in Chapter 4, for mixtures containing noncondensable components, we restrict attention to liquid solutions which are dilute with respect to all noncondensable components.

Another important accomplislnnent of the free electron model concerns tire heat capacity of a metal. At low temperatures, the heat capacity of a metal goes linearly with the temperature and vanishes at absolute zero. This behaviour is in contrast with classical statistical mechanics. According to classical theories, the equipartition theory predicts that a free particle should have a heat capacity of where is the Boltzmann constant. An ideal gas has a heat capacity consistent with tliis value. The electrical conductivity of a metal suggests that the conduction electrons behave like free particles and might also have a heat capacity of 3/fg,... 

The most direct effect of defects on tire properties of a material usually derive from altered ionic conductivity and diffusion properties. So-called superionic conductors materials which have an ionic conductivity comparable to that of molten salts. This h conductivity is due to the presence of defects, which can be introduced thermally or the presence of impurities. Diffusion affects important processes such as corrosion z catalysis. The specific heat capacity is also affected near the melting temperature the h capacity of a defective material is higher than for the equivalent ideal crystal. This refle the fact that the creation of defects is enthalpically unfavourable but is more than comp sated for by the increase in entropy, so leading to an overall decrease in the free energy...

The remaining question is how we got from G3MP2 (OK) = —117.672791 to G3MP2 Enthalpy = —117.667683. This is not a textbook of classical thermodynamics (see Klotz and Rosenberg, 2000) or statistical themiodynamics (see McQuarrie, 1997 or Maczek, 1998), so we shall use a few equations from these fields opportunistically, without explanation. The definition of heat capacity of an ideal gas... 

The variation of Cp for crystalline thiazole between 145 and 175°K reveals a marked inflection that has been attributed to a gain in molecular freedom within the crystal lattice. The heat capacity of the liquid phase varies nearly linearly with temperature to 310°K, at which temperature it rises more rapidly. This thermal behavior, which is not uncommon for nitrogen compounds, has been attributed to weak intermolecular association. The remarkable agreement of the third-law ideal-gas entropy at... 

The common physical properties of acetyl chloride ate given in Table 1. The vapor pressure has been measured (2,7), but the experimental difficulties ate considerable. An equation has been worked out to represent the heat capacity (8), and the thermodynamic ideal gas properties have been conveniently organized (9). 

Because of its small size and portabiHty, the hot-wire anemometer is ideally suited to measure gas velocities either continuously or on a troubleshooting basis in systems where excess pressure drop cannot be tolerated. Furnaces, smokestacks, electrostatic precipitators, and air ducts are typical areas of appHcation. Its fast response to velocity or temperature fluctuations in the surrounding gas makes it particularly useful in studying the turbulence characteristics and rapidity of mixing in gas streams. The constant current mode of operation has a wide frequency response and relatively lower noise level, provided a sufficiently small wire can be used. Where a more mgged wire is required, the constant temperature mode is employed because of its insensitivity to sensor heat capacity. In Hquids, hot-film sensors are employed instead of wires. The sensor consists of a thin metallic film mounted on the surface of a thermally and electrically insulated probe. 

Gaseous helium is commonly used as the working fluid ia closed-cycle cryogenic refrigerators because of chemical iaertness, nearly ideal behavior at all but the lowest temperatures, high heat capacity per unit mass, low viscosity, and high thermal conductivity.

Values for the free energy and enthalpy of formation, entropy, and ideal gas heat capacity of carbon monoxide as a function of temperature are listed in Table 2 (1). Thermodynamic properties have been reported from 70—300 K at pressures from 0.1—30 MPa (1—300 atm) (8,9) and from 0.1—120 MPa (1—1200 atm) (10). 

Hea.t Ca.pa.cities. The heat capacities of real gases are functions of temperature and pressure, and this functionaHty must be known to calculate other thermodynamic properties such as internal energy and enthalpy. The heat capacity in the ideal-gas state is different for each gas. Constant pressure heat capacities, (U, for the ideal-gas state are independent of pressure and depend only on temperature. An accurate temperature correlation is often an empirical equation of the form ... 

For the ideal-gas state there is an exact relation between the constant pressure heat capacity and the constant volume heat capacity, C, via the ideal-gas constant, R. 

From this equation, the temperature dependence of is known, and vice versa (21). The ideal-gas state at a pressure of 101.3 kPa (1 atm) is often regarded as a standard state, for which the heat capacities are denoted by CP and Real gases rarely depart significantly from ideaHty at near-ambient pressures (3) therefore, and usually represent good estimates of the heat capacities of real gases at low to moderate, eg, up to several hundred kPa, pressures. Otherwise thermodynamic excess functions are used to correct for deviations from ideal behavior when such situations occur (3). 

Heat Capacity. The multiple property estimation methods for constant pressure ideal-gas heat capacities cover a broad range of organic compounds (188,216,217). Joback s method (188) is the easiest to use however, usage of all these methods has been recommended only over the range 280—1100 K (7). An accurate method for ideal-gas heat capacities (constant pressure), limited to hydrocarbons, has been presented (218) that involves a fit of seven variables, and includes steric, ring, branching, alkene, and even allene corrections.

Heat Capacity, C° Heat capacity is defined as the amount of energy required to change the temperature of a unit mass or mole one degree typical units are J/kg-K or J/kmol-K. There are many sources of ideal gas heat capacities in the hterature e.g., Daubert et al.,"" Daubert and Danner,JANAF thermochemical tables,TRC thermodynamic tables,and Stull et al. If C" values are not in the preceding sources, there are several estimation techniques that require only the molecular structure. The methods of Thinh et al. and Benson et al. " are the most accurate but are also somewhat complicated to use. The equation of Harrison and Seaton " for C" between 300 and 1500 K is almost as accurate and easy to use ...

The implicit Crank-Nicholson integration method was used to solve the equation. Radial temperature and concentrations were calculated using the Thomas algorithm (Lapidus 1962, Carnahan et al,1969). This program allowed the use of either ideal or non-ideal gas laws. For cases using real gas assumptions, heat capacity and heat of reactions were made temperature dependent.
