A mixture is formed from 5.0 mol of liquid benzene and 5.0 mol of liquid toluene at 25 oC and 1 atm. Assume that the mixture is ideal.
Use ?Gof (benzene,l) = 90.0 kJ/mol, ?Gof (toluene,l) = 100.0 kJ/mol,
a) Calculate the chemical potentials of benzene and toluene in the mixture.
b) Using results from part a) calculate the change in Gibbs free energy when 0.10 mol of liquid benzene is added to the mixture.
c) Calculate the Gibbs free energy of the separate components, the Gibbs free energy of the mixture and the Gibbs free energy of mixing.
