  1. ∆G for Change in P (2 pts)

Calculate the change in Gibbs energy of 35 g of ethanol (mass density 0.789 g cm

− 3 ) when

the pressure is increased isothermally from 1 atm to 3000. atm. Report your answer to 2

significant figures.

  1. Phase Diagram (2 pts)

Use the phase diagram below to state what would be observed when a sample of carbon

dioxide, initially at 1.0 atm and 298 K, is subjected to the following cycle: (a) isobaric

heating to 320. K, (b) isothermal compression to 100. atm, (c) isobaric cooling to 210. K, (d)

isothermal decompression to 1.0 atm, (e) isobaric heating to 298 K.

(a) Gas is heated above Tc, but the pressure is still well below Pc, therefore, the sample

remains a gas. There is NO phase transition.

(b) The pressure is increased above Pc and temperature remains above Tc. Therefore the gas

slowly becomes a supercritical fluid. There is NO phase transition.

(c) The temperature is lowered below Tc. Initially, the supercritical fluid will become a liquid

without a phase transition occurring. Then, as the sample is cooled further, the liquid

eventually becomes a solid in a phase transition.

(d) The pressure is lowered below the solid–gas coexistence curve. The solid sample sublimes

to gas around 3.5 atm. This IS a phase transition.

(e) The gas is heated to return to its original state. There is NO phase transition.
