Calculation of Freezing-Point Depression and the Eutectic Point
Compute the freezing-point temperature versus composition curve for an ethyl benzene–toluene mixture. The physical properties for this system are given in the table.
Toluene | Ethyl Benzene | |
\delta( cal / cc )^{1 / 2} \text { at } 25^{\circ} C | 8.9 | 8.8 |
\underline{V}^{ L }( cc / mol ) \text { at } 25^{\circ} C | 107 | 123 |
Normal melting point (K) | 178.16 | 178.2 |
Heat of fusion (J/mol) | 6610.7 | 9070.9 |
C_{ P }^{ S }( J / mol K ) | 87.0 | 105.9 |
C_{ P }^{ L }( J / mol K ) | 135.6 | 157.4 |
