on the mathematical characteristics of exact differentials are
developed, including the Maxwell relations. The concept of a
fundamental thermodynamic function is discussed. Means for
evaluating changes in specific internal energy, enthalpy, and
entropy are developed and applied to phase change and to
single-phase processes. Property relations are introduced involv-
ing the volume expansivity, isothermal and isentropic compress-
ibilities, velocity of sound, specific heats and specific heat ratio,
and the Joule–Thomson coefficient.
Additionally, we describe how tables of thermodynamic prop-
erties are constructed using the property relations and methods
developed in this chapter. Such procedures also provide the
basis for data retrieval by computer software. Also described
are means for using the generalized enthalpy and entropy depar-
ture charts and the generalized fugacity coefficient chart to eval-
uate enthalpy, entropy, and fugacity, respectively.
We also consider p–y–T relations for gas mixtures of known
composition, including Kay’s rule. The chapter concludes with a
discussion of property relations for multicomponent systems,
including partial molal properties, chemical potential, fugacity,
and activity. Ideal solutions and the Lewis–Randall rule are intro-
duced as a part of that presentation.
The following checklist provides a study guide for this chap-
ter. When your study of the text and end-of-chapter exercises
has been completed you should be able to write out the mean-
ings of the terms listed in the margins throughout the chapter
and understand each of the related concepts. The subset of key
concepts listed below is particularly important. Additionally, for
systems involving a single species you should be able to
c
calculate p–y–T data using equations of state such as the
Redlich–Kwong and Benedict–Webb–Rubin equations.
c
use the 16 property relations summarized in Table 11.1 and
explain how the relations are obtained.
c
evaluate Ds, Du, and Dh, using the Clapeyron equation when
considering phase change, and using equations of state and
specific heat relations when considering single phases.
c
use the property relations introduced in Sec. 11.5, such as
those involving the specific heats, the volume expansivity,
and the Joule–Thomson coefficient.
c
explain how tables of thermodynamic properties, such as
Tables A-2 through A-18, are constructed.
c
use the generalized enthalpy and entropy departure charts,
Figs. A-4 and A-5, to evaluate Dh and Ds.
For a gas mixture of known composition, you should be able to
c
apply the methods introduced in Sec. 11.8 for relating pressure,
specific volume, and temperature—Kay’s rule, for example.
For multicomponent systems, you should be able to
c
evaluate extensive properties in terms of the respective par-
tial molal properties.
c
evaluate partial molal volumes using the method of intercepts.
c
evaluate fugacity using data from the generalized fugacity
coefficient chart, Fig. A-6.
c
apply the ideal solution model.
