Chapter 6, Problem 6I.2E

(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The adsorption of a gas is described by the Langmuir isotherm with α=1.85kPk1at25oC. The pressure at which the fractional surface coverage is 0.10 has to be calculated.

Concept introduction:

Adsorption: A molecule (adsorbate) that forms a bond to the surface (adsorbent).

Associative Adsorption: A gas molecule adsorbs without fragmentation.

Dissociative Adsorption: A gas molecule adsorbs and fragmentation occurs.

Langmuir adsorption: The isotherm is based on the characteristic assumptions that only monomolecular adsorption takes place, adsorption is localized and the heat of adsorption is independent.

Langmuir equation: p/V=p/Vm+aVm

(b)

The adsorption of a gas is described by the Langmuir isotherm with α=1.85kPk1at25oC. The pressure at which the fractional surface coverage is 0.90 has to be calculated.

Every chemist knows to ‘add acid to water with constant stirring’ when diluting a concentrated acid in order to keep the solution from spewing boiling acid all over the place.  Explain how this one fact is enough to prove that strong acids and water do not form ideal solutions.
The predominant components of our atmosphere are N₂, O₂, and Ar in the following mole fractions: χN2 = 0.780, χO2 = 0.21, χAr = 0.01. Assuming that these molecules act as ideal gases, calculate ΔGmix, ΔSmix, and ΔHmix when the total pressure is 1 bar and the temperature is 300 K.
dG = Vdp - SdT + μA dnA + μB dnB + ... so that under constant pressure and temperature conditions, the chemical potential of a component is the rate of change of the Gibbs energy of the system with respect to changing composition, μJ = (∂G / ∂nJ)p,T,n' Using first principles prove that under conditions of constant volume and temperature, the chemical potential is a measure of the partial molar Helmholtz energy (μJ = (∂A / ∂nJ)V,T,n')
