P-v-T Behavior of Gas Mixtures

13-18C Normally yes. Air, for example, behaves as an ideal gas in the range of temperatures and pressures at which oxygen and nitrogen behave as ideal gases.

13-19C The pressure of a gas mixture is equal to the sum of the pressures each gas would exert if existedalone at the mixture temperature and volume. This law holds exactly for ideal gas mixtures, but onlyapproximately for real gas mixtures.

13-20C The volume of a gas mixture is equal to the sum of the volumes each gas would occupy if existed alone at the mixture temperature and pressure. This law holds exactly for ideal gas mixtures, but onlyapproximately for real gas mixtures.

13-21C The P-v-T behavior of a component in an ideal gas mixture is expressed by the ideal gas equationof state using the properties of the individual component instead of the mixture, Pivi = RiTi. The P-v-Tbehavior of a component in a real gas mixture is expressed by more complex equations of state, or by Pivi= ZiRiTi, where Zi is the compressibility factor.

13-22C Component pressure is the pressure a component would exert if existed alone at the mixturetemperature and volume. Partial pressure is the quantity yiPm, where yi is the mole fraction of component i.These two are identical for ideal gases.

13-23C Component volume is the volume a component would occupy if existed alone at the mixturetemperature and pressure. Partial volume is the quantity yiVm, where yi is the mole fraction of component i.These two are identical for ideal gases.

13-24C The one with the highest mole number.

13-25C The partial pressures will decrease but the pressure fractions will remain the same.

13-26C The partial pressures will increase but the pressure fractions will remain the same.

13-27C No. The correct expression is “the volume of a gas mixture is equal to the sum of the volumeseach gas would occupy if existed alone at the mixture temperature and pressure.”

13-28C No. The correct expression is “the temperature of a gas mixture is equal to the temperature of the individual gas components.”

13-29C Yes, it is correct.

13-30C With Kay's rule, a real-gas mixture is treated as a pure substance whose critical pressure and temperature are defined in terms of the critical pressures and temperatures of the mixture components as

iimiim TyTPyP ,cr,cr,cr,cr and

The compressibility factor of the mixture (Zm) is then easily determined using these pseudo-critical point values.

The problem is first to be solved and then, for all otherconditions being the same, the problem is to be resolved to determine the composition of the nitrogen andcarbon dioxide that is required to have an exit velocity of 2000 ft/s at the nozzle exit.Analysis The problem is solved using EES, and the solution is given below.

"Input Data"

mf_N2 = 0.8 "Mass fraction for the nitrogen, lbm_N2/lbm_mix"mf_CO2 = 0.2 "Mass fraction for the carbon dioxide, lbm_CO2/lbm_mix"T[1] = 1800 [R] P[1] = 90 [psia] Vel[1] = 0 [ft/s]P[2] = 12 [psia] Eta_N =0.92 "Nozzle adiabatic efficiency"

"Enthalpy property data per unit mass of mixture:"

" Note: EES calculates the enthalpy of ideal gases referenced tothe enthalpy of formation as h = h_f + (h_T - h_537) where h_f is theenthalpy of formation such that the enthalpy of the elements or theirstable compounds is zero at 77 F or 537 R, see Chapter 14. The enthalpyof formation is often negative; thus, the enthalpy of ideal gases canbe negative at a given temperature. This is true for CO2 in this problem."

h[1]= mf_N2* enthalpy(N2, T=T[1]) + mf_CO2* enthalpy(CO2, T=T[1]) h[2]= mf_N2* enthalpy(N2, T=T[2]) + mf_CO2* enthalpy(CO2, T=T[2])

Eta_N=(h[1]-h[2])/(h[1]-h_s2)h_s2= mf_N2* enthalpy(N2, T=T_s2) + mf_CO2* enthalpy(CO2, T=T_s2)

"The mixture isentropic exit temperature, T_s2, is calculated from setting theentropy change per unit mass of mixture equal to zero."

"By Dalton's Law the partial pressures are:"P_1_N2 = y_N2 * P[1]; P_1_CO2 = y_CO2 * P[1] P_2_N2 = y_N2 * P[2]; P_2_CO2 = y_CO2 * P[2]

Special Topic: Chemical Potential and the Separation Work of Mixtures

13-69C No, a process that separates a mixture into its components without requiring any work (exergy)input is impossible since such a process would violate the 2nd law of thermodynamics.

13-70C Yes, the volume of the mixture can be more or less than the sum of the initial volumes of themixing liquids because of the attractive or repulsive forces acting between dissimilar molecules.

13-71C The person who claims that the temperature of the mixture can be higher than the temperatures of the components is right since the total enthalpy of the mixture of two components at the same pressure andtemperature, in general, is not equal to the sum of the total enthalpies of the individual components before mixing, the difference being the enthalpy (or heat) of mixing, which is the heat released or absorbed as two or more components are mixed isothermally.

13-72C Mixtures or solutions in which the effects of molecules of different components on each other are negligible are called ideal solutions (or ideal mixtures). The ideal-gas mixture is just one category of ideal solutions. For ideal solutions, the enthalpy change and the volume change due to mixing are zero, but theentropy change is not. The chemical potential of a component of an ideal mixture is independent of theidentity of the other constituents of the mixture. The chemical potential of a component in an ideal mixtureis equal to the Gibbs function of the pure component.

13-73 Brackish water is used to produce fresh water. The minimum power input and the minimum heightthe brackish water must be raised by a pump for reverse osmosis are to be determined.Assumptions 1 The brackish water is an ideal solution since it is dilute. 2 The total dissolved solids inwater can be treated as table salt (NaCl). 3 The environment temperature is also 12 C.Properties The molar masses of water and salt are Mw = 18.0 kg/kmol and Ms = 58.44 kg/kmol. The gas constant of pure water is Rw = 0.4615 kJ/kg K (Table A-1).
