Vapour
A vapor or vapour is a substance in the gas phase at a temperature lower than its critical point . This means that the vapor can be condensed to a liquid or to a solid by increasing its pressure without reducing the temperature. Vapor refers to a gas phase at a temperature where the same substance can also exist in the liquid or solid state, below the critical temperature of the substance water has a critical temperature of 374C (or 647 K), which is the highest temperature at which liquid water can exist.
5

Difference between gas and vapours


gases for which no liquid or solid can form at the temperature of the gas Gas is the phase where no condensation occur Vapour is the phase which directly attached with liquid or solid Vapour phase which condense

Vapor pressure
Vapor pressure or equilibrium vapor pressure is the pressure of a vapor in thermodynamic equilibrium with its condensed phases in a closed system. The pressure exerted by the gas in equilibrium with a solid or liquid in a closed container at a given temperature is called the vapor pressure. The gas that is above the liquid is called its vapor and it creates a pressure called vapor pressure

VAPOUR PRE..CONT
The equilibrium vapor pressure is an indication of a liquid's evaporation rate A substance with a high vapor pressure at normal temperatures is often referred to as volatile All liquids and solids have vapor pressure at all temperatures except at absolute zero, -459F (-273C)

Saturated Vapor Pressure


The process of evaporation in a closed container will proceed until there are as many molecules returning to the liquid as there are escaping. At this point the vapor is said to be saturated, and the pressure of that vapor (usually expressed in mmHg) is called the saturated vapor pressure The saturated vapour pressure is the maximum pressure the vapour from a liquid (or solid/solution) can exert at a given temperature if the substance alone occupied a container in which the liquid/solution/solid is in equilibrium with the vapour

10

Partial vapor pressure

The vapor pressure that a single component in a mixture contributes to the total pressure in the system is called partial vapor pressure. For example, air at sea level, saturated with water vapor at 20 C has a partial pressures of 24 mbar of water, and about 780 mbar of nitrogen, 210 mbar of oxygen and 9 mbar of argon.
11

Measurement and units


Vapor pressure is measured in the standard units of pressure. The International System of Units (SI) recognizes pressure as a derived unit with the dimension of force per area and designates the pascal (Pa) as its standard unit. One pascal is one newton per square meter (Nm2 or kgm1s2). Other units are psi , atm , bar , torr , mmHg.
12

The Microscopic View


When a solid or a liquid evaporates to a gas in a closed container, the molecules cannot escape. Some of the gas molecules will eventually strike the condensed phase and condense back into it. When the rate of condensation of the gas becomes equal to the rate of evaporation of the liquid or solid, the amount of gas, liquid and/or solid no longer changes. The gas in the container is in equilibrium with the liquid or solid.

13

Microscopic equilibrium between gas and liquid. Note that the rate of evaporation of the liquid is equal to the rate of condensation of the gas
14

How do molecules of the liquid become molecules of gas?


Each molecule in the liquid has energy, but not the same amount. The energy is distributed according to the MaxwellBoltzmann distribution. The MaxwellBoltzmann distribution for the speed follows immediately from the distribution of the velocity vector, above. Note that the speed is

Even if you don't know what that is, the point is that some molecules have a fairly large amount of energy compared to the average. Those are the ones we are interested in.

17

Factors That Affect Vapor Pressure Surface Area: the surface area of the solid or
liquid in contact with the gas has no effect on the vapor pressure.

18

FACTORSCONT
Types of Molecules:
the types of molecules that make up a solid or liquid determine its vapor pressure. If the intermolecular forces between molecules are: relatively strong, the vapor pressure will be relatively low. relatively weak, the vapor pressure will be relatively high

19

FACTORSCONT
Ethyl ether (C4H10O):
Pvapor (25oC) = 520 torr The relatively weak dipole-dipole forces and London dispersion forces between molecules results in a much higher vapor pressure compared to ethyl alcohol.

Ethyl alcohol (C2H6O):


Pvapor (25oC) = 75 torr
Although dipole-dipole forces and London dispersion forces also exist between ethyl alcohol molecules, the strong hydrogen bonding interactions are responsible for the much lower vapor pressure compared to ethyl ether.
20

FACTORSCONT
Temperature: at a higher temperature, more
molecules have enough energy to escape from the liquid or solid. At a lower temperature, fewer molecules have sufficient energy to escape from the liquid or solid.

Microscopic equilibrium between gas and liquid at low temperature. Note the small number of particles in the gas.

Microscopic equilibrium between gas and liquid at high temperature. Note the large number of particles in the gas.
21

if you were to put more liquid in, the vapor pressure would go up?
there are two opposing processes at work: (1) molecules leaving the liquid's surface . (2) molecules returning to the liquid at its surface. If we pour down some more liquid in already present liquid the molecules leaving the surface and returning remain equal..so no effect..

22

Vapour pressure of mixtures


ROULTS LAW:
Raoult's law gives an approximation to the vapor pressure of mixtures of liquids. It states that the activity (pressure or fugacity) of a single-phase mixture is equal to the mole-fraction-weighted sum of the components' vapor pressures

where p is vapor pressure, i is a component index, and is a mole fraction. The term pii is the partial pressure of component i in the mixture. Raoult's Law is applicable only to non-electrolytes (uncharged species); it is most appropriate for non-polar molecules with only weak intermolecular attractions (such as London forces).
23

Vapor Pressure Lowering


The Macroscopic View:
When a solute is added to a solvent, the vapor pressure of the solvent (above the resulting solution) is lower than the vapor pressure above the pure solvent. The vapor pressure of the solvent above a solution changes as the concentration of the solute in the solution changes.

24

V P LOWERING CONT
Non-Volatile Solutes
Experimentally, we know that the vapor pressure of the solvent above a solution containing a non-volatile solute (i.e., a solute that does not have a vapor pressure of its own) is directly proportional to the mole fraction of solvent in the solution. This behavior is summed up in Raoult's Law: Psolvent = Xsolvent Psolvent
1.0 M NaCl solution
25

Pure water - microscopic view.

Volatile Solutes

volatile solute (i.e., a solute that has a vapor pressure of its own) will contribute to the vapor pressure above a solution in which it is dissolved. The vapor pressure above a solution containing a volatile solute (or solutes) is equal to the sum of the vapor pressures of the solvent and each of the volatile solutes. Psolvent = Xsolvent Psolvent Psolute = Xsolute Psolute Psolution = Psolvent + Psolute

Boiling point
The boiling point of a substance is that temperature at which the vapor pressure equals to the applied pressure. At sea level or there about this isthe "normal boiling point" where the pressure is 1 atm = 760 mm Hg.

31

Relation between boiling piont and vapour pressure


The boiling temperature of water for atmospheric pressures can be approximated by Antoine equation: or transformed into this temperature-explicit form: where the temperature Tb is the boiling point in degrees Celsius and the pressure P is in Torr.

Altitude &boiling piont & vapour pressure


The vapor pressure is a function of the temperature and the heat of vaporization, call it H, in the following way log [P2/P1] = -{ H/(2.303*1.987)} *[ 1/T2 - 1/T1] The "log" is the common base 10 log, H is in cal/mol, and T is in degrees K. T1, P1 is the norma boiling point and atmosphere pressure T2, P2 is the boiling point and atmosphere pressure at altitude
35

Effect of Altitude
The boiling point of a substance is that temperature at which the vapor pressure equals to the applied pressure. At sea level or there about this is the "normal boiling point" where the pressure is 1 atm = 760 mm Hg. The boiling point of a substance will depend upon the altitude, because the applied pressure is less and less, the higher the elevation.

36

vapor pressure: measurements


Vapour pressure measurements based on following categories ,
REID VAPOUR PRESSURE TRUE VAPOUR PRESSURE
38

REID VAPOUR PRESSURE


Reid vapor pressure (RVP), determined by the ASTM test method D323,56, is widely used in the petroleum industry to measure the volatility of petroleum crude oil, gasoline and other petroleum products. It is a quick and simple method of determining the vapor pressure at 37.8 C (100 F) of crude oil and petroleum products having an initial boiling point above 0 C (32 F). ASTM ..American Society for Testing and Materials under the designation ASTM D323-56

39

Cont.
RVP is the absolute pressures as distinguished from gauge pressures ,Because of the presence air (and its of water vapor content) in the vapor space within the test method's sample container, as well as some small amount of sample vaporization during the warming of the sample to 37.8 C (100 F), the RVP differs by a small amount from the TVP of the sample.
40

TRUE VAPOUR PRESSURE


True vapor pressure (TVP), is a common measure of the volatility of petroleum distillate fuels. It is defined as the equilibrium partial pressure exerted by a volatile organic liquid as a function of temperature as determined by the test method ASTM D 2879.

METHODES TO MEASURE VAPOUR PRESSURE


Basically there are two ways to calculate the vapour pressure Theoretically measurement Experimentally measurement
45

THEORETICAL MEASUREMENTS
The vapour pressure of a substance can be calculate theoretically by using different equations. Antoine equation Clausius-clapeyron equation

46

ANTOINE EQUATION
Chemical engineers use antine equation to estimate the vapour pressure of pure liquid and solids. The results are more reliable than clausius-clapeyron equation. log P = A - B T+C

47

where A, B, and C are "Antoine coefficients" that vary from substance to substance. The Antoine equation is accurate to a few percent for most volatile substances (with vapor pressures over 10 Torr).

49

CLAUSIUS-CLAPEYRON EQUATION
Chemists often use the ClausiusClapeyron equation to estimate the vapor pressures of pure liquids or solids ln (P/P) =H/R (1/T - 1/T)

50

CONT.
where P is the vapor pressure, P is a vapor pressure at a known temperature T, H is an enthalpy of vaporization R is the ideal gas law constant, and T is the temperature (in kelvins).

51

CONT..
Several of the assumptions fail at high pressure and near the critical point, and under those conditions the Clausius-Clapeyron equation will give inaccurate results. Chemists still like to use the equation because it's good enough in most applications and because it's easy to derive and justify theoretically. Chemical engineers often use the more accurate Antoine equation to predict vapor pressures.
52

Measurement of Vapor Pressure by a Static Method


In our laboratory two recently constructed static apparatuses are available. Static method allows measurement of vapor pressure in the liquid as well in the solid phases over a wide range of temperatures including room temperature. As the inner volume of the apparatuses is evacuated to pressure of about 10-5 Pa and the apparatus is regularly checked for tightness by a helium leak detector the static apparatuses allow measurement with compounds sensitive to oxygen and water. In the next two sections the apparatuses and their most recent improvements are described in some more details and the preparation of samples for vapor pressure measurement is discussed.

REID VAPOUR PRESSURE method


The reid vapour pressure is the absolute vapour pressure and the true vapour pressure is the partial vapour pressure. RVP is the absolute pressure exerted by a liquid at 100F The higher the value, the more voaltile the sample and more readily it will evaporates.

56

TEST METHOD

The liquid chamber is filled with a liquid sample that has been pre-chilled to a temperature of 32 to 40 F (0 to 4 C) and then the liquid chamber is very quickly connected to the vapor chamber fitted with a pressure gauge

Other test methods for certain petroleum products


Test method ASTM D323,56 is not applicable for liquified petroleum gases (LPG). ASTM D1267 or D6897 should be used for LPG. ASTM D323 is also not applicable for gasolines containing oxygenated compounds other than methyl tertiary-butyl ether (MTBE).[4] For gasolines containing other oxygenated compounds, refer to ASTM D4953. The International Organization for Standardization (ISO) has a test method, ISO 3007:1999, that is the equivalent of the ASTM D323 test method. Many European countries use that standard or have their own standards which are generally the same is the ISO standard. The Japanese Industrial Standard JIS K2258 includes the equivalent of the ASTM D323 test method.

Apllications and uses of vapour pressure


Air pollution regulatory authorities mandate maximum gasoline vapor pressures in many areas so as to limit the evaporative emissions of smog-forming hydrocarbons from gasoline. In 1996, with the implementation of the CaRFG2 (California's Phase 2 Reformulated Gasoline ) regulations, the RVP standard was reduced to a flat limit of 7.0 psi. In 2004, the CaRFG3 regulations are implemented with a RVP flat limit of 6.9 psi when the evaporative emissions model element of the Predictive Model is used and a cap limit of 7.2 psi Vapor pressure is also important as an indirect measure of the evaporation tendency of volatile petroleum solvents.
64

CO2 Applications:
It is necessary to keep the CO2 in a liquid state, especially as it experiences the pressure drop through the inlet valve. care must still be taken to keep the inlet piping pressure loss to a minimum.
65

Inlet Pressure and Temperature must be in the Liquid range indicated on the above CO2 Vapor Pressure Chart to keep CO2 as a liquid.
66

Cont.
in oil refineries, while designing the storage tank for crude oil vapour pressure is considered in account . In pressure cookers the vopur presssure of water is increased thus temperature of water also increases and result food cooked fast. Vapour pressure is used to check the volatility of a substance. higher the vapour pressure higher its volatility and vice versa.
