PHASE SEPARATIONS. Raoult’s Law. The partial vapour pressure of a component in a mixture is equal to the vapour pressure of the pure component at that temperature multiplied by its mole fraction in the mixture . Where P A =saturated vapour pressure of A

Raoult’s Law • The partial vapour pressure of a component in a mixture is equal to the vapour pressure of the pure component at that temperature multiplied by its mole fraction in the mixture.
Where PA =saturated vapour pressure of A =saturated vapour pressure of pure A =mole fraction of A in the solution
Raoult’s Law is obeyed by mixtures of similar compounds they are said to form IDEAL SOLUTIONS. The substances A and B form an ideal solution if the intermolecular forces A----A,A----B andB----B are all equal. • Examples of ideal mixtures are hexane and heptane benzene and methylbenzene propan-1-ol and propan-2-ol
Vapour Pressure / Composition Diagrams for Ideal Mixture Liquids. Ptotal=PA+PB
The partial vapour pressure of A at a particular temperature is proportional to its mole fraction. If you plot a graph of the partial vapour pressure of A against its mole fraction, you will get a straight line.
The mole fraction of B falls as A increases so the line will slope down rather than up. As the mole fraction of B falls, its vapour pressure will fall at the same rate.
Boiling Point / Composition Diagram for Ideal Mixtures Notice again that the vapour is much richer in the more volatile component B than the original liquid mixture was.
The diagram just shows what happens if you boil a particular mixture of A and B. Notice that the vapour over the top of the boiling liquid has a composition which is much richer in B - the more volatile component.
Solutions of liquids which do not obey Raoult's Law are called non-ideal solutions. • There are two types of non ideal solutions 1.positive Deviation from Raoult's law 2. Negative Deviation From Raoult’s Law
Solutions which have a vapour pressure greater than that predicted from Raoult’s Law are said to show a positive deviation from the law. • E.g. Hexane and ethanol • This is where the A--B interaction is weaker than the A--A and the B--B interactions. • As a result the molecules escape from the mixture more easily than for an ideal solution.
Vapour Pressure Composition Curve For Non Ideal solutions • 1) POSITIVE DEVIATION This vapour pressure is greater than any other composition and either of the pure liquids Maximum vapour pressure
Boiling Temperature-Composition Curves For Non Ideal Solutions 1) POSITIVE DEVIATION The same mixture will have a minimum boiling point lower than any other composition and either of the pure liquids Minimum boiling point azeotrope
Solution with a vapour pressure lower than the calculated values are said to show a negative deviation. • E.g. Nitric acid and water • This is where the A--B interaction is greater than the A--A and the B--B interactions. • It is more difficult for the molecules to escape from the mixture than for an ideal mixture.
Vapour Pressure-Composition Curve For Non Ideal Solutions 2) NEGATIVE DEVIATION Which is less than any other composition and either of the pure liquids. Minimum vapour pressure
Boiling Temperature-Composition Curve For Non Ideal Solutions 2) NEGATIVE DEVIATION This means there is a maximum boiling point which is higher than any other composition and either of the pure liquids Maximum boiling point azeotrope
Note the terms used • Minimum boiling point azeotrope • Maximum boiling point azeotrope
Simple Distillation • Simple distillation is designed to evaporate a volatile liquid from a solution of non-volatile substances; the vapour is then condensed in the water condenser and collected in the receiver.
Fractional Distillation • Fractional distillation is used to separate the components of a mixture(miscible) of liquids by means of the difference in their boiling temperatures.
A mixture rich in the most volatile component distils over at the top of the column, where the thermometer registers its boiling temperature. • As distillation continues the temperature rises towards the boiling temperature of the next most volatile component. • The receiver is changed to collect the second component.
Fuels are obtained from crude oil by fractional distillation
Distillation At Reduced Pressure • High boiling liquids and many liquids which have a tendency to decompose near their boiling temperatures are often purified by distillation under reduced pressure, since lowering the pressure dramatically reduces the temperature at which a liquid will distil. • Distillation under reduced pressure always carries a slight risk of the apparatus *imploding. *imploding -to collapse inwardly with force as a result of the external pressure being greater than the internal pressure, or cause something to collapse inwardly
Vacuum Distillation • Vacuum distillation is distillation at a reduced pressure. Since the boiling point of a compound is lower at a lower external pressure, the compound will not have to be heated to as high a temperature in order for it to boil
Steam Distillation • Steam distillation operates on the principle that immiscible liquids exert their own vapour pressure so that when the mixture boils the sum of the vapour pressure equals one • Steam distillation is a method of distilling a compound at a temperature below its normal boiling point.
Solvent Extraction • Liquids that form two layers when mixed provide an opportunity for purification of materials that prefer one layer more than the other. • For example, many organic chemicals are liquids that are very non-polar and separate from water because it is quite polar.
Partition-when the solute distributes itself between he two immiscible liquids. • Partition coefficient(k)-the concentration of the solute in each solvent at equilibrium is a constant ratio and the equilibrium constant for the system. • If cU and cL are the concentrations in the upper and lower layers then • cU/cL=k k - Only applicable in dilute solutions and it varies with temperature
The partition coefficient will remain constant under these conditions: the temperature is constant the solvents are immiscible and do not react with each other 3. The solute does not react associate or dissociate in solvents.
Simple Question • The mass of iodine used is 0.9656g and 25.0cm3 of the aqueous layer require 4.40cm3 of 0.01000 moldm-3 thiosulphate Ar(I)=127.
Tougher question • The product of an organic synthesis, 5.00g of X, is obtained in a solution in 1.00dm3 of water. Calculate the mass of X that can be extracted from the aqueous solution by • 50.0cm3 of ethoxyethane • Two successive portions of 25.0cm3 of ethoxyethane. The k of X between ethoxyethane and water is 40.0 at room temperature
