A formula analogous to that for CP-CVrelates the isothermal and isentropic compressibilities of a material:

ฮบT=ฮบS+TVฮฒ2CP.

(Here ฮบS=-(1/V)(โˆ‚V/โˆ‚P)Sis the reciprocal of the adiabatic bulk modulus considered in Problem 1.39.) Derive this formula. Also check that it is true for an ideal gas.

ฮบT=ฮบS+ฮฒ2VTCP

Step by step solution

01

To  prove

ฮบT=ฮบS+ฮฒ2VTCP

02

Explanation

The isothermal and isentropic compressibilities can be calculated as follows:

ฮบT=-1Vโˆ‚Vโˆ‚PT.....(1)ฮบS=-1Vโˆ‚Vโˆ‚PS.....(2)

If S is a function of P and T, then V=V(P,T)is obtained from the definition of the derivative:

role="math" localid="1648438079130" dS=โˆ‚Sโˆ‚PTdP+โˆ‚Sโˆ‚TPdT....(3)

If V is a function of P and S, then V=V(P,S)is obtained from the definition of the derivative:

dV=โˆ‚Sโˆ‚PTdP+โˆ‚Vโˆ‚STdS

Substitute from (3) to get:

dV=โˆ‚Sโˆ‚PTdP+โˆ‚Vโˆ‚STโˆ‚Sโˆ‚PTdP+โˆ‚Sโˆ‚TPdTdV=โˆ‚Sโˆ‚PT+โˆ‚Vโˆ‚STโˆ‚Sโˆ‚PTdP+โˆ‚Sโˆ‚TPdT

At constant temperature dT=0we get:

(dV)T=โˆ‚Sโˆ‚PT+โˆ‚Vโˆ‚STโˆ‚Sโˆ‚PTdPโˆ‚Vโˆ‚PT=โˆ‚Sโˆ‚PT+โˆ‚Vโˆ‚STโˆ‚Sโˆ‚PT

03

Further continuation for the proof

substitute from (1) and (2) to get:

-VฮบT=-VฮบS+โˆ‚Vโˆ‚STโˆ‚Sโˆ‚PT......(4)

From the Gibbs energy and the Maxwell relation, we can conclude:

โˆ‚Sโˆ‚PT=โˆ‚Vโˆ‚TP

The thermal expansion is determined by:

ฮฒ=1Vโˆ‚Vโˆ‚TP

Add these two equations together to get the following result:

โˆ‚Sโˆ‚PT=-ฮฒV

substitute into (4) to get:

-VฮบT=-VฮบS-ฮฒVโˆ‚Vโˆ‚ST

04

Further continuation for the proof 

At constant pressure, the volume changes owing to a temperature change, and it is given by:

dV=ฮฒVdT....(6)

and the entropy change is given by:

dS=dQT=CPdTT....(7)

divide (6) over (7) to get:

โˆ‚Vโˆ‚SP=ฮฒVTCP

substitute into (5) to get:

-VฮบT=-VฮบS-ฮฒ2V2TCP

ฮบT=ฮบS+ฮฒ2VTCP.......(8)

05

Further continuation for the proof 

For an ideal gas we have:

ฮฒ=1Vโˆ‚Vโˆ‚TP=1Vโˆ‚โˆ‚TNkTPP=NkPV=1T......(9)

ฮบT=-1Vโˆ‚Vโˆ‚PT=1Vโˆ‚โˆ‚PNkTPT=NkTP2V....(10)

substitute from (9), (10) and (11) into (8) to get:

ฮบS=ฮบT-ฮฒ2VTCPฮบS=NkTP2V-ฮฒ2VTNk1+f2-1ฮบS=NkTP2V-ฮฒ2VTNk2+f2-1ฮบS=NkTP2V-VNkT22+f

To use PV=NKTwe get:

ฮบS=PVP2V-VPV22+fฮบS=1Pf2+f......(12)

06

Further continuation for the proof 

Now we must verify this relationship: in an ideal gas, in an isentropic (adiabatic) process, we have:

PVฮณ=K

whereฮณ=(f+2)/fandKis constant, write forVto get:

V=KP1/ฮณ

ฮบS=โˆ’1Vโˆ‚โˆ‚PKP1/ฮณฮบS=1VฮณKP(1/ฮณ)โˆ’1KP2ฮบS=1VฮณKP(1/ฮณ)PKKP2ฮบS=1VฮณVPKKP2ฮบS=1PฮณฮบS=1Pf2+f

which is equivalent to (12)

Therefore we proved thatฮบT=ฮบS+ฮฒ2VTCP

Everything in this section assumes that the total pressure of the system is fixed. How would you expect the nitrogen-oxygen phase diagram to change if you increase or decrease the pressure? Justify your answer.

Consider a fuel cell that uses methane ("natural gas") as fuel. The reaction is

CH4+2O2โŸถ2H2O+CO2

(a) Use the data at the back of this book to determine the values of ฮ”Hand ฮ”Gfor this reaction, for one mole of methane. Assume that the reaction takes place at room temperature and atmospheric pressure.

(b) Assuming ideal performance, how much electrical work can you get out of the cell, for each mole of methane fuel?

(c) How much waste heat is produced, for each mole of methane fuel?

(d) The steps of this reaction are

at-electrode:CH4+2H2Oโ†’CO2+8H++8e-at-electrode:2O2+8H++8e-โ†’4H2O

What is the voltage of the cell?

The methods of this section can also be applied to reactions in which one set of solids converts to another. A geologically important example is the transformation of albite into jadeite + quartz:

NaAlSi3O8โŸทNaAlSi2O6+SiO2

Use the data at the back of this book to determine the temperatures and pressures under which a combination of jadeite and quartz is more stable than albite. Sketch the phase diagram of this system. For simplicity, neglect the temperature and pressure dependence of both โˆ†S and โˆ†V.

When solid quartz "dissolves" in water, it combines with water molecules in the reaction

SiO2(s)+2H2O(l)โŸทH4SiO4(aq)

(a) Use this data in the back of this book to compute the amount of silica dissolved in water in equilibrium with solid quartz, at 25ยฐ C

(b) Use the van't Hoff equation (Problem 5.85) to compute the amount of silica dissolved in water in equilibrium with solid quartz at 100ยฐC.

Suppose you cool a mixture of 50% nitrogen and 50% oxygen until it liquefies. Describe the cooling sequence in detail, including the temperatures and compositions at which liquefaction begins and ends.
