The objectives of Chapter 16 are to:
|
|
|
Develop the equilibrium criterion for reacting systems based on the second law of thermodynamics. |
|
|
|
Develop a general criterion for chemical equilibrium applicable to any reacting system based on minimizing the Gibbs function for the system. |
|
|
|
Define and evaluate the chemical equilibrium constant. |
|
|
|
Apply the general criterion for chemical equilibrium analysis to reacting ideal-gas mixtures. |
|
|
|
Apply the general criterion for chemical equilibrium analysis to simultaneous reactions. |
|
|
|
Relate the chemical equilibrium constant to the enthalpy of reaction. |
|
|
|
Establish the phase equilibrium for nonreacting systems in terms of the specific Gibbs function of the phases of a pure substance. |
|
|
|
Apply the Gibbs phase rule to determine the number of independent variables associated with a multi-component, multiphase system |
|
|
|
Apply Henry’s law and Raoult’s law for gases dissolved in liquids. |
