Exercise #18 Steam Tables Boiling water at low pressure From chart P = 75 kPa, T = 91.78 C and T = 100 kPa, T = 99.63 C Cover with heavy lid P lid = F/A = mg/ r 2 = [(4)(9.8)/( )(0.1) 2 ] = 1.25 kPa Now have a factor of 0.384 between table values http://www.chempute.com/waspwin.htm http://www.chempute.com/waspwin.htm
3
Solids Solids will hold a volume even in conditions of low external pressure Need to be able to accurately measure small changes to find expansivity and compressibility
4
Volume Expansivity How does the size of a a solid object change with temperature? Need to find volume expansivity For isotropic materials: where is the linear expansivity: = (1/L)(dL/dT) Note that some materials are non-isotropic
5
Optical Interferometer To find and thus need to measure small change in linear dimension Separate two semi-transparent plates with a ring of the material in question Each interference fringe that moves past a reference point indicates ½ wavelength of changed size
7
Determining If N fringes pass the field of view, than the change in size (from L 0 to L) is: The relative change is: (L - L 0 )/L 0 = ½N / L 0 Or: = d/dT (½N / L 0 )
9
Variation of with T Rises sharply with T and then flattens out Variations are only weakly dependant on pressure (for solids)
10
Compressibility How does volume change with pressure? = -(1/V)(dV/dP) Adiabatic compressibility is also isentropic
11
Determining s The adiabatic compressibility can be found for a fluid by measuring the speed of sound (pressure) waves For a crystal solid have to measure both shear and pressure waves
12
and S How are and s related? by the heat capacities: c P –c V = Tv 2 / We can combine equations to get: - S = Tv 2 /c P
13
Variations of with T Unlike approaches a constant at 0 K Values tend to rise linearly at higher T for solids Liquids generally have an exponential rise of with T: Liquids also have a linear increase of with P
16
Heat Capacity at Constant Volume Can find c V with Mayer relation How does c V (molar heat capacity) vary with temperature? At the Debye temperature, c V approaches 3R For all substances, c V versus T curves have a similar shape, but each substance may have different Debye temperatures
19
Entropy and Heat Capacities How are the entropy and heat capacities related? dS = dQ/T (dQ/dT) = T (dS/dT) Can calculate entropy change from C: Where C is C P or C V depending on if the process is isobaric or isochoric
21
The TS Diagram Generally have solid at low T and low S and gas at high T and high S
