Isothennal compressibility

There are two further usefiil results related to ((N-(N)) ). First is its coimection to the isothennal compressibility = -V dP/8V) j j, and the second to the spatial correlations of density fluctuations in a grand canonical system. ... 

Comparing the two results and substituting the relation of the mean square number fluctuations to isothennal compressibility, equation (A2.2.128) one has... 

Finally, we consider the isothennal compressibility = hi V/dp)y = d hi p/5p) j, along tlie coexistence curve. A consideration of Figure A2.5.6 shows that the compressibility is finite and positive at every point in the one-phase region except at tlie critical point. Differentiation of equation (A2.5.2) yields the compressibility along the critical isochore ... 

A third exponent y, usually called the susceptibility exponent from its application to the magnetic susceptibility x in magnetic systems, governs what m pure-fluid systems is the isothennal compressibility k, and what in mixtures is the osmotic compressibility, and detennines how fast these quantities diverge as the critical point is approached (i.e. as > 1).

Finally, the products are isothennally expanded (or compressed) from their respective equilibrium fugacities to their standard-state fugacities of 1 bar. The Gibbs energy change is calculated as in step 1 ... 

Steam at 300(°F) and l(atm) is compressed isothennally in a mechanically reversible, nonflol process until it reaches a final state of saturated liquid. Determine Q and W for the process.

The main parameter that determiaes the solubility is the ease of condensation, with molecules becoming more condensable with increasing diameter The critical temperature T is a measure of the ease of condensation. Figure V - 16 illustrates a series of P-V isothenns for a given gas. Below a certain tenqjoature (the critical temperature T ) the gas can be liquefied, simply by increasing the pressure. Under these circumstances the volume is reduced and the molecules are compressed so close together that condensation occurs.
