Raoult's Law - Non-ideal Mixing

Non-ideal Mixing

Raoult's Law may be adapted to non-ideal solutions by incorporating two factors that will account for the interactions between molecules of different substances. The first factor is a correction for gas non-ideality, or deviations from the ideal-gas law. It is called the fugacity coefficient . The second, the activity coefficient, is a correction for interactions in the liquid phase between the different molecules.

This modified or extended Raoult's law is then written:

Famous quotes containing the word mixing:

    Political image is like mixing cement. When it’s wet, you can move it around and shape it, but at some point it hardens and there’s almost nothing you can do to reshape it.
    Walter F. Mondale (b. 1928)
