The Relationship

This paper describes the first part of an investigation of the thermodynamic properties of gases and gaseous mixtures undertaken a few years ago at the National Physical Laboratory, with the main object of providing data on the relationship between the properties of mixtures and those of the pure constituents. The virial coefficients of carbon dioxide and ethylene have been determined by the series-expansion method over the range —10 to 200 °C, and the representation of the results by several forms of intermolecular potential has been investigated. In the case of ethylene it appears that the second virial coefficient may be represented accurately in terms of a Lennard-Jones 6:12 potential, the parameters of which are determined. In the corresponding representation for carbon dioxide there is a small but systematic discrepancy and evidence is adduced that this may be rectified by the introduction of a quadrupole interaction term on the lines of the theory developed by Pople. The value of the quadrupole moment suggested by this calculation proves to be in fairly close agreement with a recent direct determination. Work on the virial coefficients of mixtures of the two gases will be described in a further paper.

Anisotropic Part

The classical second virial coefficients B(T) for nitrogen and carbon monoxide have been calculated exactly as a function of temperature for three different realistic models of the intermolecular potential. The potential models, due to Kohin, Raich and Mills, and Raich and Gillis, differ mainly, but not solely, in the way in which they represent the short-range Coulomb repulsion between molecules. As this interaction depends on the molecules' shapes, it is highly anisotropic. To ensure good accuracy in the results for B(T) the angular and radial integrals were performed by suitable Gaussian integration methods.The contributions to B(T) of various anisotropic terms are considered, and a power series expansion in terms of the anisotropic part of the potential discussed. The calculated results are compared with experiments, and some general conclusions drawn.

The present work involves in determining isotropic and effective pair potential energy of binary gas mixtures of Kr–Xe , Kr–C2H6 , Xe–C2H6 , Kr–C3H8 , and Xe–C3H8 from thermophysical properties consisting of viscosity and second virial coefficients through inversion method. Typically, the calculated intermolecular potential energy of Kr–Xe system has compared with HFD model potential reported in literature. A desirable harmony between our model potential and HFD model has been obtained. In order to assess the potential energies obtained, transport properties including viscosity, diffusion, thermal diffusion factor, and thermal conductivity of aforementioned mixtures were predicted using the calculated models potential. The deviation percentage of the calculated viscosity and thermal conductivity of above-mentioned mixtures from the literature values are, respectively, within ±2%, ±3%.
