By how much does the entropy of copper increase on heating from 300 to 1358 K?
3.
Estimate the change in the equilibrium melting point of copper caused by a change of pressure
of 10 kbar. The molar volume of copper is 8.010-6 m3 for the liquid, and 7.610-6 m3 for the
solid phase. The latent heat of fusion of copper is 13.05 kJ/mol. The melting point is 1085C.

16. Show that a general expression for the chemical potential of a component in solution is given
by
A G A0 S A T0 T RT ln A X A P P0 Vm
where G A0 is the free energy of pure A at temperature T 0 and pressure P0, SA is the entropy of
A, R is the gas constant, A the activity coefficient for A, XA the mole fraction in solution, Vm is
the molar volume which is assumed to be constant. Under what conditions is the above
equation valid?
