Transcript Two Component Systems Containing Liquid Phases:

Phase Equilibrium
 A phase : a physically distinct portion of a system
that is separated from the other portion by a
boundary.
 A component : a chemically different constituents
that participates in the formation of phases.
Example:
Ice
cubes
water
Two Phases
One Component
Gibbs’ Phase Rule
• used
to determine the degree of freedom which is the least
number of independent variables, e.g.: temperature, pressure,
and concentration affecting various phases at equilibrium.
F=C –P+ 2
Where;
• F is the no. of degrees of freedom.
• C is the no. of components.
• P is the no. of phases exist in equilibrium.
 Solids are soluble in liquids , while liquids are
miscible in liquids.
 Types of miscibility:
miscible
Partially miscible
Ethyl alcohol /water
phenol / water
immiscible
mercury / water
Factors affecting miscibility of phenol in water:

Precautions :
1- Be very cautious with the ampoule (phenol injury is
3rd degree burn).
2- Suspended ampoule must not touch the wall or
bottom of the beaker.
3- when recording the temperature, the suspended
thermometer must not touch the wall or bottom of the
beaker.
4- If the difference between the temp. at which turbidity
disappears and re-appears is > 2ºC, heat again and
record the temp. at which turbidity disappears again.
