Abstract

A simple unified treatment of fugacity and activity is presented for both gaseous and condensed phases. It is hoped that this treatment will be found useful as a clearer and more general alternative to existing treatments.

    • Prediction of Hydrogen Adsorption Properties in Expanded Graphite Model and in Nanoporous Carbon

      Lujian Peng and James R. Morris
      The Journal of Physical Chemistry C2010 114 (36), 15522-15529

      This paper calculates that the theoretical hydrogen uptake in nanoporous carbons is close to 0.5 wt % at 298 K and 5 MPa, higher than most reported values in activated carbons. The isosteric heats of adsorption for nanoporous carbons and for an expanded ...

    • Does the Addition of Inert Gases at Constant Volume and Temperature Affect Chemical Equilibrium?

      Susana Fonseca , João C. M. Paiva and Jorge Gonçalves
      Journal of Chemical Education2008 85 (8), 1133

      In this article we examine three approaches, leading to different conclusions, for answering the question "Does the addition of inert gases at constant volume and temperature modify the state of equilibrium?" In the first approach, the answer is yes as a ...
