A solution of 2-propanol and 1-octanol behaves ideally. Calculate the chemical potential of 2-propanol in solution relative to that of pure 2-propanol when its mole fraction is 0.41 at its boiling point (82.3°C).

The chemical potential of 2-propanol in solution relative to that of pure 2-propanol is lower by 2.63x10⁻³.    

Explanation:

The chemical potential of 2-propanol in solution relative to that of pure 2-propanol can be calculated using the following equation:

Where:

μ (l): is the chemical potential of 2-propanol in solution    

μ° (l): is the chemical potential of pure 2-propanol  

R: is the gas constant = 8.314 J K⁻¹ mol⁻¹

T: is the temperature = 82.3 °C = 355.3 K

x: is the mole fraction of 2-propanol = 0.41

Therefore, the chemical potential of 2-propanol in solution relative to that of pure 2-propanol is lower by 2.63x10⁻³.    

I hope it helps you!    

b. accuracy of the data matters alot more than its number of digits, organization or amount of detail. quantitative observation is more accepted than the qualitative observation.

oxygen, selenium, tellurium, and polonium.

they're all from the same group as sulfur (group 16).
