Program

Cap. 1.  SOLUTION THERMODYNAMICS: Fundamental property relation. Partial properties. Equations relating molar and partial molar properties. Gibbs-Duhem equation. Partial properties for binary mixtures. Relations among partial properties. The concept of chemical potential and its relationship with phase equilibria. Ideal gas mixtures and Gibbs's theorem. Ideal solution model. 

Cap. 2. PHASE EQUILIBRIA: Application of the chemical potencial to phase equilibria. Fugacity and fugacity coefficient for pure species. Vapour-Liquid equilibrium for pure species in terms of fugacities. Fugacity for pure liquids. Fugacity and fugacity coefficient for species in solution. Calculation of fugacity coefficients using equations of state and generalized correlations. Raoult and Henry laws. Lewis-Randall's rule. Excess properties. Models for excess Gibbs energy. Equations for activity coefficients. Property changes of mixing. Vapor-Liquid equilibrium. Liquid-Liquid equilibrium. Solid-Liquid equilibrium.

Cap.3. APPLICATIONS OF PHASE EQUILIBRIA: bubble and dew temperatures and pressures calculations; calculations of compositions of equilibrium phases for non-ideal systems. Flash units- isothermal and adiabatic. Chemical-Reaction Equilibria: equilibrium constants, equilibrium conversions for homogeneous and heterogeneous systems.

Cap. 4. PREDICTION OF PROPERTIES: methodologies for the calculation and prediction of physical-chemical properties (group-contribution methods and corresponding states principle).

Eligibility for exams

According to the current rules of FEUP (approved by Pedagogical Council).

Calculation formula of final grade

The students may choose one of the two criteria:
1) Distributed evaluation: two tests during the semester, on dates to be scheduled plus final exam. Classification = 40% tests + 60% final exam. 
2) Final exam. (100 %)
