By subtracting Nfrom localid="1648229964064" U,H,F,orG,one can obtain four new thermodynamic potentials. Of the four, the most useful is the grand free energy (or grand potential),

U-TS-N.

(a) Derive the thermodynamic identity for , and the related formulas for the partial derivatives ofwith respect toT,V, and N

(b) Prove that, for a system in thermal and diffusive equilibrium (with a reservoir that can supply both energy and particles), tends to decrease.

(c) Prove that=-PV.

(d) As a simple application, let the system be a single proton, which can be "occupied" either by a single electron (making a hydrogen atom, with energy -13.6eV) or by none (with energy zero). Neglect the excited states of the atom and the two spin states of the electron, so that both the occupied and unoccupied states of the proton have zero entropy. Suppose that this proton is in the atmosphere of the sun, a reservoir with a temperature of 5800Kand an electron concentration of about 21019per cubic meter. Calculate for both the occupied and unoccupied states, to determine which is more stable under these conditions. To compute the chemical potential of the electrons, treat them as an ideal gas. At about what temperature would the occupied and unoccupied states be equally stable, for this value of the electron concentration? (As in Problem 5.20, the prediction for such a small system is only a probabilistic one.)

Substitutelocalid="1648229955784" (TdS-PdV+dN)forlocalid="1648229313031" dUin expression (3).

localid="1648229656341" d=TdS-PdV+dN-TdS-SdT-dN-Nd.......(5)=-PdV-SdT-Nd

Write an expression for a system's total entropy change when it comes into contact with a reservoir.

role="math" localid="1648230417137" dStot=dS+dSR..(6)

Here, dStotis the total change in entropy,

dSis the change of entropy of the system and

dSRis the change of entropy of the reservoir.

Calculation:

dSR=1TdUR-1TdNR..(7)

Rearrange expression ( 7 ) Considering that the reservoir's change in entropy is equal to the system's negative change in entropy.

dSR=-1TdU+1TdN

Where, dUis the change of internal energy and dNis the change in number of molecules of the system.

Substitute -1TdU+1TdNfordSRin expression (6).

role="math" localid="1648230741206" dStot=dS-1TdU+1TdN=-1T(dU-TdS-dN)

Substitute dfor (dU-TdS-dN)in above expression.

Where,kBis Boltzmann Constant,

localid="1648234771752" mis the mass of the particle,

his Planck's Constant.

Substitute KB=1.3810-23JK-1

T=5800k

m=9.1110-31kg

h=6.62610-34Js

v=1.0641027

And N=2.01019m-3in expression (8)

localid="1648233393234" =-1.3810-23JK-1(5800K)ln1.06410272.01019m-329.1110-31Kg1.3810-23JK-1(5800K)6.62610-34J-s23/2=-1.42410-18J=-1.42410-18J1019eV1.6J=-8.9eV

For unoccupied state, substitute 0 for U, S and N in the expression =U-TS-N

so, unoccupied=0

For occupied state, substitute 0 for U, S and N in the expression =U-TS-N

so,occupied=Ug-

09

Part (d) - Step 9: Further calculation

Now occupied=Ug-

Where Ugis the internal energy of the ground state

Substitute ug=-13.6eV=-8.9eVin above expression

occupied=-13.6eV+8.9eV=-4.7eV

Write the condition for stability of both occupied and unoccupied states.

unoccupied=occupied

The expression for Ug=N

Now substitute N=-17.8kBTin above expression

role="math" localid="1648234514735" T=-Ug17.8kB

Now the value of ug=-13.6eVkB=8.610-5eVK-1in above expression

T=-(-13.6eV)(17.8)8.610-5eVK-1=8866k

Hence As a result, the grand potential for an unoccupied state is 0 and-4.7eVfor an occupied state.8866k is the required temperature.

In constructing the phase diagram from the free energy graphs in Figure 5.30, I assumed that both the liquid and the gas are ideal mixtures. Suppose instead that the liquid has a substantial positive mixing energy, so that its free energy curve, while still concave-up, is much flatter. In this case a portion of the curve may still lie above the gas's free energy curve at TA. Draw a qualitatively accurate phase diagram for such a system, showing how you obtained the phase diagram from the free energy graphs. Show that there is a particular composition at which this gas mixture will condense with no change in composition. This special composition is called an azeotrope.

Derive the van't Hoff equation,

dlnKdT=HRT2

which gives the dependence of the equilibrium constant on temperature." Here His the enthalpy change of the reaction, for pure substances in their standard states (1 bar pressure for gases). Notice that if His positive (loosely speaking, if the reaction requires the absorption of heat), then higher temperature makes the reaction tend more to the right, as you might expect. Often you can neglect the temperature dependence ofH; solve the equation in this case to obtain

lnKT2-lnKT1=HR1T1-1T2

Show that equation 5.40 is in agreement with the explicit formula for the chemical potential of a monatomic ideal gas derived in Section 3.5. Show how to calculate for a monatomic ideal gas.

In this problem you will investigate the behavior of a van der Waals fluid near the critical point. It is easiest to work in terms of reduced variables throughout.

(a) Expand the van der Waals equation in a Taylor series in , keeping terms through order . Argue that, for T sufficiently close to Tc, the term quadratic in (V-VC)becomes negligible compared to the others and may be dropped.

(b) The resulting expression for P(V) is antisymmetric about the point V = Ve. Use this fact to find an approximate formula for the vapor pressure as a function of temperature. (You may find it helpful to plot the isotherm.) Evaluate the slope of the phase boundary,dP/dT

( c) Still working in the same limit, find an expression for the difference in volume between the gas and liquid phases at the vapor pressure. You should find Vg-VlTc-T.8, where (3 is known as a critical exponent. Experiments show that (3 has a universal value of about 1/3, but the van der Waals model predicts a larger value.

(d) Use the previous result to calculate the predicted latent heat of the transformation as a function of temperature, and sketch this function.

The shape of the T = Tc isotherm defines another critical exponent, called P-PcV-VcCalculate 5 in the van der Waals model. (Experimental values of 5 are typically around 4 or 5.)

A third critical exponent describes the temperature dependence of the isothermal compressibility, K=-t This quantity diverges at the critical point, in proportion to a power of (T-Tc) that in principle could differ depending on whether one approaches the critical point from above or below. Therefore the critical exponents 'Y and -y' are defined by the relations

T-Tc-Tc-T-'

Calculate K on both sides of the critical point in the van der Waals model, and show that 'Y = -y' in this model.
