Raoult's law (/ ˈ r ɑː uː l z / law) is a relation of physical chemistry, with implications in thermodynamics.Proposed by French chemist François-Marie Raoult in 1887, [1] [2] it states that the partial pressure of each component of an ideal mixture of liquids is equal to the vapor pressure of the pure component (liquid or solid) multiplied by its mole fraction in the mixture.
The vapor pressure affects the solute shown by Raoult's Law while the free energy change and chemical potential are shown by Gibbs free energy. Most solutes remain in the liquid phase and do not enter the gas phase, except at very high temperatures. In terms of vapor pressure, a liquid boils when its vapor pressure equals the surrounding pressure.
Köhler theory combines the Kelvin effect, which describes the change in vapor pressure due to a curved surface, with Raoult's Law, which relates the vapor pressure to the solute concentration. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] [ 3 ] It was initially published in 1936 by Hilding Köhler , Professor of Meteorology in the Uppsala University.
The Margules activity model is a simple thermodynamic model for the excess Gibbs free energy of a liquid mixture introduced in 1895 by Max Margules. [1] [2] After Lewis had introduced the concept of the activity coefficient, the model could be used to derive an expression for the activity coefficients of a compound i in a liquid, a measure for the deviation from ideal solubility, also known as ...
In thermodynamics, an activity coefficient is a factor used to account for deviation of a mixture of chemical substances from ideal behaviour. [1] In an ideal mixture, the microscopic interactions between each pair of chemical species are the same (or macroscopically equivalent, the enthalpy change of solution and volume variation in mixing is zero) and, as a result, properties of the mixtures ...
François-Marie Raoult (/ r ɑː ˈ uː l /; 10 May 1830 – 1 April 1901) was a French chemist who conducted research into the behavior of solutions, especially their physical properties. Life and work
The 3,922-step Haiku Stairs in Hawaii were built by the US Navy during World War II and have been officially closed to the public since 1987 — but problems with illegal trespassing have ...
These are analogous to Boyle's law and Charles's law for gases. Similarly, the combined ideal gas law , P V = n R T {\displaystyle PV=nRT} , has as an analogue for ideal solutions Π V = n R T i {\displaystyle \Pi V=nRTi} , where Π {\displaystyle \Pi } is osmotic pressure; V is the volume; n is the number of moles of solute; R is the molar gas ...
