Solutions

Definitions:

Solubility: The ability of a given component to dissolve into another component.

Solvent: The component in greater amount, which dissolves the minor component.

Solute: The component in lesser amount, which is dissolved.

Solubility Limit: The maximum amount (concentration) of the solute, which can be dissolved in the solvent.

Mechanical mixture: System consisting of two completely immissible components.

A solution is a homogeneous system ↔ it represents a single phase.

Variation of the Crystallization/Melting temperature

of the solution with composition

DSC, DTA ( at ambient pressure)

SolutionsDetermination of Solubilities

In DSC/DTA the Cp peak broadens due to instrumental factors

(heating rate; mass of the sample, shape of sample, time lag, etc.)

The melting/crystallization temperaturs in DTA/DSC are

determined by the corresponding Onset Temperatures.

Melting is 1st Order Phase transtion → The Entalpy shows a jump.

SolutionsGibbs Energy

Mechanical mixture (C = 2):

G = nAGA + nBGB; N = nA + nB ( number of moles);

Molar Gibbs energy: Gm = XA GA + XB GB; XA + XB = 1

Implications:

Gm = (1 – XB) GA + XB GB;

The molar Gibbs energy of a mechanical

mixture is a linear sum of the Gibbs energies

XA = nA/(nA + nB); XB = nB/ (nA + nB);

Solution (C = 2):

Gsol = nAGA + nBGB + DGmix; DGmix - Gibbs energy of mixing

DS mix = kB ln(W)

W = Wvib Welec WConf ; DS mix = DS vib + DS Conf + DS Elec;

Vibrational Entropy:

For a single component system (C = 1) without electronic degrees of freedom and defects, the entropy arrises

from the vibrational degrees of freedom (Lecture 2)

S (vib) = - (∂G/∂T)p ;

Ssol = nASA + nBSB - (∂DGmix/∂p)T(∂p/∂T) = nASA + nBSB - DVmix(∂p/∂T)

DS mix (vib) = -(∂p/∂T) DVmix ; For the ideal solid-solution model DVmix = 0 → DS mixid(vib) ~ 0

# Substitutional solid solutions;

# DS mixid (vib) ~ 0;

# Neglecting electronic contributions to the entropy;

# Only contribution from the different possible arrangements of the A and B atoms in the lattice

considered (configurational entropy)

# ideal solid-solution model: similar forces between different types of atoms → random distribution is

the most probable:

mechanical mixture XAGA + XBGB.
