Properties of a pure substance

Pure Substance

The pure substance is one that haspa homogeneous and invariablechemical composition.p

A pure substance may exist in manyA pure substance may exist in manyphases, but the chemical compositionis same in all the phasesis same in all the phases.

The Critical Point

The liquid vapor equilibrium curve has an upperlimit labeled as C This is known as the Criticallimit, labeled as C. This is known as the CriticalPoint.

Above the critical temperature, it is impossible tocondense a gas into a liquid just by increasingpressurepressure.

The critical temperature varies from substance topsubstance.

Gibbs Phase Rule

The Phase Rule describes the possiblenumber of degrees of freedom in anumber of degrees of freedom in a(closed) system at equilibrium, in termsof the number of separate phases andthe number of chemical constituents inthe number of chemical constituents inthe system.

The Degrees of Freedom [F] is thenumber of independent intensivevariables that need to be specified invariables that need to be specified invalue to fully determine the state of thesystem.

Gibbs Phase Rule

Gibbs Phase Rule:F = C - P + 2

Where P: The number of phases C: The Chemical Constituents

For Example: A system with oneFor Example: A system with onecomponent and one phase has twodegrees of freedom: temperature andpressure say can be variedpressure, say, can be variedindependently.

Gibbs Phase Rule

For pure substance (C=1)p ( )F = 1 + 2 – P = 3 – PF = 3 – PF 3 P

For P = 1 F = 2 ( P & T independent)

For P = 2, F = 1( P & T dependent)

For P = 3, F = 0 ( Triple Point)
