1.0 Introduction
• A phase diagram is a graphical representation of all the equilibrium phases as a function of temperature, pressure, and composition.
• Phase diagrams arise from minimizing free energies for each phase. They can be used to describe gas - liquid – solid transitions, polymorphic solid-to-solid transitions, stable phases in alloys of different composition, etc.

5
For example, for transformation occurring at constant T and P the relative stability of the phases in a system is determined by their Gibbs free energies, ∆G = Gfinal - Ginitial = ∆ H - T ∆ S
∆G < 0 => process is allowed∆G > 0 => process is forbidden∆G = 0 => equilibrium
2.0 Thermodynamically Stable Phases
Thermodynamics can be used to predict weather the system isin equilibrium and to analyze the phase stability and phase transformations.
6
Cont….
• Usually, only one phase of a given substance is stable at any given temperature and pressure.
• At some conditions of temperature and pressure, two or more phases may exist in equilibrium.
• A slight change in temperature or pressure will favor one phase over others. The conversion of one phase to another is a phase transition.
• Phase transitions occur with a decrease (spont.) or no change (equil.) in Gibbs energy.

3.0 Unary Heterogeneous Systems
A system is considered to be unary if it consists of a single chemical component for the range of states under study.
Example CO2 or H2O
Homogeneous system - consists of a single phase
Heterogeneous system - consists of more than one phase
All the elements may exists in at least 3 distinct states of matter or phase- solid, liquid and gas
8
Cont…
Many element exhibit more than one phase form in solid state-called AllotropesExample : BCC and FCC structures are allotropic forms of iron
The BCC phase change to FCC iron at 910oC, 1 atm pressure-called allotropic transformation
In general, Phase Transformation- any change in the phase form of a system
Example : •melting or fusion-which change solid to liquid•boiling or vaporization-which change from liquid to vapour

Recall Gibbs Phase Rule
For a system at equilibrium,
F = C F = C -- P + 2P + 2
C = the number of components (1 so far in this chapter)P = the number of phases presentF = the number of degrees of freedom (the number of intensive
variables such as temp, pres, or mol frac that can be changed without disturbing the number of phases in equilibrium)

3.3 Conclusion-Unary p - T Diagrams
Single phase regions are represented by an area: 2-D & 2 degrees offreedom.
Two phase equilibria are represented by a line: 1-D & 1 degree offreedom.
Three phase equilibria are represented by a point (the triple point): 0-D & no degrees of freedom.
No regions on a P - T diagram show more than 3 phases coexisting atequilibrium.
Properties of the liquid and vapor phases merge at the critical point.
23
Cont…
Two phase equilibrium boundaries extend into stable single phaseregions & indicate potential metastable equilibria.
Slopes of two-phase equilibrium lines increase as the volumeexpansion on heating decreases.
Slopes of two-phase equilibrium lines are positive for volumeexpansions on heating and slopes are negative for volumecontractions.
Two-phase equilibrium boundaries are approximately straight onlog P vs. I/T diagrams.

G = H - TS, so the slope of the lines at left
= (dG/dT) = -S
This assumes that H and S are constant with temp.
Since S is positive for all phases of all substances, the slopes are all negative.
Note that the gas phase has the steepest slope; the solid phase, the least steep.

3.5 Metastability
In systems at constant T & P Gibbs free energy is a minimum at equilibrium.
The phase with the lowest Gibbs free energy is the most stable.
When phases with higher Gibbs free energies form, they are metastable.
The greater the deviation of their free energies from the stable phase, the lower the stability of the metastable phase.

Exercise 1.2

Solution 1.2:• The thermodynamically stable phase is the one with the lower
Gibbs energy, which would be the - (white) tin at 25 oC.

Thus the slope of the curve is the negative entropy of the phase. In order for phase to appear at higher temperatures the free energy of should fall rapidly than the as the temperature is raised . In other words, the free energy curve for is steeper than the this means the entropy of should be larger than

Similar argument for other phase in the systemFor liquid,

The chemical potential of these 2 phase can be compared at any given (T,P) combination if and only if the reference state used in their computation is the same.
The reference state is chosen to be thesolid phase at (To, Po) and now it is possible to construct surfaces for both surface on one graph Fig 7.3 c
The two surfaces intersect along a space curve AB-at any point on this curve, T, P, of the two phases are identical.

The two surfaces intersect along a space curve AB-at any point on this curve, T, P, of the two phases are identical.
This is the conditions that must be met in order for the solid and liquid phase to coexist in equilibrium
The projection of this line onto (P, T) plane is the phase boundary that defines the (s+L) two phase equilibrium and the limit of stability of the solid and liquid phases.

All three surface intersect at a single point O. At this point T, P, of all the 3 phases are the same and all 3 phases coexist in equilibrium. The projection onto (T,P) plane, O’ is the triple point for the 3 phases (s+L+G)

• Partially dissolve in one another or• Be completely immiscible

Partially-Miscible Liquid Systems
• The hexane-nitrobenzene system is seen at left. This system has an upper critical temperature.
• The region of miscibility is outside the dome-shaped area. When the components are miscible there is only one phase present.
• For any given temp inside the dome shaped area, forms two liquid solution
• The relative amounts of the two phases present will be given by the lever rule.
Fully
miscible
Immiscible
Other Partially-Miscible Systems
• Two other types of partially-miscible systems are seen at left.
• The triethylamine-water system has a lower critical temperature. That is, the components get more miscible as the temperature gets lower.
• The nicotine-water system has both an upper and a lower critical temperature. Only between 61 and 210 oC are there two phases present.
For binary system in which two components are mutually soluble in all proportion in both liquid and solid state, the possible phase diagram are as shown below

Azeotropes, high-boiling
16
T-x Diagrams• For an ideal solution the T-x diagram looks
like that at left.
• Here the liquid phase lies below the vapor.
• As the temp is raised from a starting point at a1, boiling occurs at a2 , with the vapor comp’n being at a2. The distillate is richer in the more volatile component.
• Successive distillations will separate the pure components.
Fractional Distillations• The horizontal lines in the two-phase region, joining
liquid and vapor phases in equilibrium but of different composition, are called tie lines.
• These are labeled 1, 2, 3, etc. at left.
• A fractional distillation consists of starting with liquid, heating to boiling, condensing the distillate, and repeating.
• The efficiency is quantified by the number of the theoretical plates, the number of effective vaporisation and condensation steps that are required. The closer together the liquid and vapor curves are, the more theoretical plates are needed to achieve a given degree of separation of components.

Azeotropes, high-boiling
• Unfortunately, not all solutions are ideal. Often there is a maximum or minimum in the boiling-point curve.
• Note that the liquid and vapor curves converge at the maximum (composition b)
• Once this composition is reached, no further separation is possible by simple distillation.
• Composition b is called an azeotrope.
• The system HCl-H2O exhibits this behavior.
Azeotropes, low-boiling• In the high-boiling azeotrope, a pure
component could be separated in the distillate, and the residue approached the azeotropic composition.
• There are also low-boiling azeotropes, in which pure components can be separated in the residue but the distillate approaches the azeotropic composition.
• A well-known system with a low-boiling azeotrope is EtOH- H2O. The azeotropic comp’n is 95% EtOH.
17
4.3 Binary systems without solid solution
Eutectic System
• It is commonly found that many materials are highly miscible in the liquid state, but have very limited mutual miscibility in the solid state. Thus much of the phase diagram at low temperatures is dominated by a 2-phase field of two different solid structures-one that is highly enriched in component A (the α phase) and one that is highly enriched in component B (the β phase). These binary systems, with unlimited liquid state miscibility and low or negligible solid state miscibility, are referred to as eutectic systems.
• The behavior just described, where the two components are completely miscible at high temperatures in the liquid state and phase-separated into two solids at low temperatures would be represented by a phase diagram as follows:
• The solid forms of A and B are essentially immiscible.
• Their liquids are complete miscible.• No solid-state compounds are formed between A and B.

• Common tangents to free energy curves define composition regions where phase separation (two phase equilibria) occurs.
• Phase separation lowers the overall free energy by splitting the homogenous system into a weighted mix of two separate phases, which each have lower free energy than the starting homogeneous phase.
Compositions of the phases in two-phase regions are given by the tangent points, and the amount of each phase is determined by the lever rule.

Based on the Gibbs free energy curves we can construct a phase diagram for a binary isomorphous systems
Let’s construct a binary phase diagram for the simplest case: A and B components are mutually soluble in any amounts in both solid (isomorphous system) and liquid phases, and form ideal solutions.
.
Example :
5.1 Free energy diagrams of total solubility systemsWe have 2 phases – liquid and solid. Let’s consider Gibbs free energy curves for the two phases at different T
T1 is above the equilibrium melting temperatures of both pure components: T1 > Tm(A) > Tm(B) > the liquid phase will be the stable phase for any composition
Decreasing the temperature below T1 will have two effects:
GAliquid and GB
liquid will increase more rapidly than GAsolid and GB
solid
The curvature of the G(XB) curves will decrease.
Eventually we will reach T2 – melting point of pure component A, where GA
liquid = GBsolid
For even lower temperature T3 < T2=Tm(A) the Gibbs free energy curves for the liquid and solid phases will cross
As temperature decreases below T3 GAliquid and GB
liquid continue to increase more rapidly than GA
solid and GBsolid
Therefore, the intersection of the Gibbs free energy curves, as well as points X1 and X2 are shifting to the right, until, at T4 = Tm(B) the curves will intersect at X1 = X2 = 1
20
At T4 and below this temperature the Gibbs free energy of the solid phase is lower than the G of the liquid phase in the whole range of compositions – the solid phase is the only stable phase.
Construction of the phase diagram
5.2 Free energy diagram for binary solutions with a miscibility gap
Let’s consider a system in which the liquid phase is approximately ideal, but for the solid phase we have .Hmix > 0
At low temperatures, there is a region where the solid solution is most stable as a mixture of two phases α1 and α2 with compositions X1 and X2.
This region is called a miscibility gap.
