ACTIVITY 2 - SOLUTION THERMODYNAMICS

NAME:______________
Solve the following.

1. Find the volumes of ethanol and water to be mixed in order to prepare solution containing 500
liters of a 60 mole % ethanol (1) - water (2) mixture.

Data: Partial molar volume in 60 mole% ethanol-water mixture

EtOH - 57.5 x 10-6 m3/mole H2O = 16 x 10-6 m3/mole

Molar volumes of pure components:

EtOH - 57.9 x 10-6 m3/mole H2O - 18 x 10-6 m3/mole

2. Given the equation of molar density: ρ = 1 + X2, X2 is the mole fraction of component 2, at
constant pressure and temperature. Calculate the partial molar volume at infinite dilution for

component 1, V 1 .
