a) For H2O(l) at 289K, find Gf(298.15, 100 barr), the Gibbs Free Energy of formation at
100 barr.

V ~ 1.000 cm3/g
M = 18.01528 g/mol
[Ans. -236.951 kJ/mol]
b) Find the Standard Gibbs Free Energy of Formation of H2O(g) at 298.15K from the
above Tabulated value for the liquid. The Vapor Pressure of Water is 23.756 Torr at
25oC. Make reasonable approximations, but state them. The Tabulated value for this
result is -228.572 kJ/mol. What is the percentage error in your calculation?

a) Derive an equation for the Molar Gibbs Free Energy of a gas G(T,P) relative to the
Standard value for the gas at the same temperature, in terms of Virial Coefficients.
Recall,
Z = 1 + B’P + C’P2 + D’P3
with B’, C’ and D’ being functions of temperature.
b) For Methane at 200K:
B’ = -5.66 x 10-3 barr-1
C’ = 6.68 x 10-6 barr-2
D’ = 17.3 x 10-9 barr-3
Calculate the Gibbs Free Energy of 1 mole Methane at 100 barr and 200K, relative to
Go(200K). Compare this result with the Ideal value.

Plot a graph showing the Molar Gibbs Functions for Methanol Liquid and Methanol Ideal
Gas at 298K over a pressure range from 50 to 750 Torr. Label the points corresponding to
the Standard States. Show, by a heavy line, the sections of the curves representing the
stable phases. What is the value of P at the point of intersection? What is the significance
of this result?
Data: Gf,liqo(298) = -166.27 kJ/mol
Gf,gaso(298) = -161.96 kJ/mol
(Take the Gibbs function values for the elements in their Standard Reference States to be
zero.)

For gaseous mixtures, the Virial expansion of the Compressibility Factor Z to first order
becomes:
Z = 1 + B’P

B’ = x12B1 + 2x1x2B12 + x22B2
where B1, B2 and B12 are functions of temperature only. The coefficients B1 and B2 are
obtained from Equation of State data for the two components, while the interaction
constant B12 requires data for mixtures of else must be estimated.
a) Find the expression for V(T,P,n1,n2) for the mixture.
