Gas Mixtures

Learning Objectives


I.

II.

Define the quantities used to describe the composition of a mixture, such as mass fraction, mole fraction, and volume fraction.

III.

Apply the rules for determining mixture properties to ideal-gas mixtures and real-gas mixtures.

IV.

Predict the P-v-T behavior of gas mixtures based on Dalton's law of additive pressures and Amagat's law of additive volumes.

V.

Develop the concept of chemical potential and determine the separation work of mixtures.
