Focus on one species as a solvent. The chemical potentials of the
gas and liquid phases must be equal at equilibrium.

Consider a solvent, initially pure, at a given T there will be a vapor
pressure above the liquid, or a partial pressure (if there is air above the
liquid). The partial pressure is determined by the balance (equality) of
the chemical potential of the liquid and the vapor (or gas).

The partial pressure of species i is the same from both
Dalton’s and Rauolt’s Laws. “y” are the mole fractions in the
vapor phase, and “x” are the mole fractions in the solution.
Using both of these laws simultaneously implies that the mole
fraction of i in the gas phase is in general not the same as the
mole fraction of the same species in the liquid phase.

moles of toluene. At 300 K, the vapor pressures of the pure
*
*
substances are Pbenzene
= 103Torr and Ptoluene
= 32.1Torr .
a) The pressure above this solution is reduced from 760 Torr. At
what pressure does the vapor phase first appear?
b) What is the composition of the vapor under these conditions?
Solution
a) The mole fractions of the components in the solution are
xbenzene = 0.606 and
xtoluene = 0.394. The vapor pressure above this solution is
*
*
Ptotal = xbenzene Pbenzene
+ xtoluene Ptoluene
= 0.606 ⋅103Torr + 0.394 ⋅ 32.1Torr = 75.1Torr
No vapor will be formed until the pressure has been reduced to
this value.

This problem concerns dilute solutions of two volatile liquids A and B, At
50 °C, the vapor pressure of pure liquid A is 0.67 atm and the vapor
pressure of pure liquid B is 1.1 atm. You may assume Raoult’s law is
valid for the solvent species in this solution and Henry’s Law is valid for
the solute species in this solution. The gas phase is ideal.
A) At 50 °C, a solution with mole fraction Xa=0.9 and Xb=0.1 has a total
vapor pressure of 0.75 atm. Calculate the mole fraction Yb of B in the
vapor phase that is in equilibrium with the solution.
B) Calculate the total vapor pressure at 50 °C for a solution with mole
fractions Xa=0.95 and Xb=0.05.
Use Henry’s Law for Oxygen to determine the concentration of
oxygen in water and compare that with the concentration (M) of
oxygen in the Air. k H ( O2 / water ) = 50kBar

pressure of the solvent (x1). This can be used to measure

The dilemmas of thermodynamics (H. Rocha, who
understands this better than this would imply)
Thermodynamics is hard, I foretold.
No doubt a challenge, but I was bold.
Before me all of Gibbs was exposed.
Amidst laughs and jokes I heard all proposed.
I've learned a lot, but more confusion I now behold.
by Heiddy Rocha
There was an isolated system
whose species sat at equilibrium
Since no barrier did tame
Their potentials were the same
And now we don't have to measure'em

Henry’s Law and dissolution of gases
Henry’s law and deep-sea diving
Henry’s Law:
Pi = ki xi
As pressure increases, the amount of gas dissolved in the blood
stream increases.
Associated phenomena (problems) that are understood by
Henry’s Law, which can be applied to gasses that have no vapor
or partial pressures, they are just gasses
Divers ascend slowly so as to prevent gas-bubble embolisms (bends)
Divers can be poisoned by oxygen
and have narcotic like responses to all gasses
Divers need to change formula in tanks if going deeper than 250 feet.
29
Example Problem:
An average human weighing 70 kg has a blood volume of 5.00 L. The
Henry’s Law constant for the solubility of N2 in water is 9.04 x104 bar
at 298 K. [This is 105 bars not Pascals.] Assume that this is also the
value of the Henry’s Law constant for blood and that the density of
blood is 1.00 kg L-1 (same as water).
a) Calculate the number of moles of N2 absorbed in the blood stream
assuming that air is 80% N2 at sea level with the pressure at 1 bar.
b) Calculate the number of moles of N2 absorbed in the blood stream
assuming that the inhaled air is 80% N2 and the diver is at a depth of
150 meters. This is 500 feet; 250 feet is about the extent of depth
with air based scuba equipment. Beyond that you nee He/O2 (Helox)
based equipment.
c) Now the diver is brought to sea level. What volume of N2 gas is
released in the diver’s blood stream?
30
a) Partial pressure of N 2 = PN2 = y N 2 Ptotal = 0.8 × (1.00 bar)=0.8 bar

At 150 meters, one is at 16 Atm of pressure so the amount of nitrogen is:
b) N 2 in blood stream = 40 ⋅ 10 −3moles
If this much N2 came out of the blood as gas at one Atm (if a diver were
to surface too fast), the volume of gas (as bubbles in the blood) would
be about 100 cc of gas. This causes the bends.
31
Other features of deep sea diving
• Oxygen Toxicity occurs at ~1 Atm of pure oxygen. To
avoid this how far can one dive using 20% O2 air in the
tank?
• How much oxygen is in the blood at 200 feet?
• Some technical divers can go to 800 feet. What type of
gas would they breath at that depth?
•
If you hold your breath (apnea) then you don’t need to worry as
much about the bends and your can descend and ascend much
faster. Records are around 200 meters and 10 minutes (Yes, on a
single breath, down and back.) Same for whales and dolphins etc.

• Fish need 4 ppm; extract with gills using counter flow.
• On a common basis, oxygen in water is about 2% of the
concentration in air.
• Contrast this with a diver using air going to 200 feet. This
is about 7 atm, or 1.4 Atm of O2 (more than pure air in
34
the body). Fish have the equivalent of 6 mAtm.
Rapture of the Deep: Gas Narcosis

to too much for too long.

• Xe is about 25 times more potent than nitrogen.
• He has no known effect; but its Henry’s law Constant
predicts very little He dissolves in blood.
• Why is CO2 not as well correlated?
35
How is CO2 removed from the body?
• CO2 is about 3 times more soluble in water than oxygen.
• Therefore, there must be an active way to transport CO2
out of the body, just as there is an active way to
transport O2 into the body. (For each O2 used one CO2 is
generated.)
• CO2 is permeable to RBCs, so the shuttling alone would
not change the (steady state) gradient between muscle
cells and environmental levels.
• An “active method” is employed to hasten removal.

36
Why put salt on roads?
• Consider what happens when a molecule (solvent) is
added to a liquid. It dissolves only in liquid but not in the
solid (or the vapor) phase.
• The presence of such extras lowers the chemical
potential (makes more stable) of the liquid form, relative
to the vapor and solid phases.
• The chemical potentials must still be equal at the
equilibrium point, but that point must change.
• The freezing temperature can be set/adjusted by adding
salt to water. (How to make ice cream.)
37
Example: Adding salt on roads during winter
Make Frozen Ice Cream.
ice
Water, o0 C, 1 atm
μwater
μwater = μice
μ salt water
Salt water, 0 oC, 1 atm
μ salt water < μ water
μ salt water < μice
The salt lowers the freezing point
of the ice, so some ice melts to
cool the entire system, until the
new freezing point is reached.
38
Graphical representation of colligative properties
Pressure
Addition of salt lowers the chemical
potential of the liquid phase.
This makes the liquid more stable
than either the solid or the vapor
(which are not affected by the addition
of salt)
Therefore the coexistence lines must
move down and liquid freezes at
lower temperature and boils at a
higher temperature.

Freezing Point Depression

The two chemical potentials must be equal. The liquid drops, so the
chem. Pot. difference must compensate.

d μ ( A, T ) = d μ 0 ( A, T ) + RTd ln χ s d μ 0 ( A, T ) = − SA dT d μ ( s ) = − S S dT

T drop is proportional to the concentration of solute (e.g. salt), the

40
better than NaCl or sugar on a per mole basis to reduce freezing?
And what happens to the boiling point?
•
Liquid becomes more stable than vapor, so the boiling temperature
must go up. (Same principle/derivation as Raoult’s Law )
μisolution (l , χ i ) = μi ( g , P)
•
This is the same conditions as Raoult’s Law and leads to the same
relation:

must follow.

Adding salt lowers the vapor pressure
from P*, the boiling point at the boiling
temperaute by Raoult’s law. This is the
new reference point for the new C-C line.
The T is now the new T when the solution

boils again.

The new reference pressure, P’, replaces P* above, and the
temperature is still To. Boiling occurs when P=P*; at this pressure

The temperature increase is proportional to the number of moles (or
concentration) of whatever is added. The effect is independent of what
the molecules are (as long as they are soluble in the solvent), and the
proportionality constant of the drop depends only on the solvent.

Osmotic Pressure
Pure solvent (water) can flow freely
between pure region and solution
(contains e.g. sugar which cannot pass
the membrane). The Gibb’s energy of
mixing drives water into the solution.
This swells the membrane, which must
hold against the increased pressure, (π).
The additional pressure eventually
balances the favorable entropy of mixing.
At equilibrium the water chemical
potential in the pure phase must equal
that in the solution:

Osmotic Pressure and Trees
• Experiment done by Dr. R. Smith (UW, Botany)
• Measure the pressure of the water across the leaves of
trees as a function of height.
• The experiment requires a pressure chamber and a
shotgun.
• How much pressure does water exert as a function of
height?

Measure the height of the leave, remove leave from tree
(this is where the shotgun comes in handy). Measure
pressure needed to push water out of leaf (with pressure
chamber), compare with pressure of water at that height.

Example: Calculate the osmotic pressure of the solution in a 12
oz. coke can at 298 K. You may assume that 8 oz = 0.25 L. A
can of coke says that there is 39 g of sucrose in 12 oz of solution
and the molecular mass of sucrose is 342.3 g /mole. How high
can this much sucrose pull water?
