1. MASS AND VOLUME
For mass: Conservation law for mass “Matter is neither created nor
destroyed”:
mA + mB = mT or mA + mB = mC + mD
1. For gases, VA + VB ≠ VT
2. For liquids, VA + VB = VT 2
Converting Solid and Liquid Volumes to Mass
Density (ρ) is defined as mass (m) per unit volume (V) of a substance:
Specific gravity (SG) is the ratio of the density (ρ) of a substance to the
density (ρref) of a reference substance at a specific condition.
SG 3
The specific gravity of gases frequently is referred to air, but may be
referred to other gases. The reference substance for liquids and solids is
normally water at 4ºC:

3. CHEMICAL COMPOSITION
Atomic weight is the mass of an atom on a scale that assigns 12C (the
isotope of carbon whose nucleus contains 6 protons and 6 neutrones) a
mass of 12.

Example 1: How many of each of the following are contained in 100 g
of CO2 (MW = 44.01)?
(1) mol CO2. (2) lb-moles CO2.
(3) mol C. (4) mol O.
(5) mol O2. (6) g O.
(7) g O2. (8) molecules of CO2.

3.2 Mass and Mole Fractions and Average Molecular Weight
The percent by mass of A is 100 xA, and mole percent of A is 100 yA.
For liquids and solids, it will always be assumed that the composition is on
a mass basis unless otherwise stated. For gases, it will be assumed to be
in molar basis.
12
Example 2: A solution contains 15% A by mass (xA = 0.15) and 20
mole% B (yB = 0.2).
Solution:

14
A set of mass fractions may be converted to an equivalent set of mole
fractions by:
(b) Using the known mass fractions to calculate the mass of each
component and converting these masses to moles.
(c) Taking the ratio of the moles of each component to the total number of
moles.

Example 3: A mixture of gases has the following composition by mass:
O2 16% (xO2 = 0.16 g O2/g total)
CO 4%
CO2 17%
N2 63%
What is the molar composition?
Solution:
16
The average molecular weight of a mixture is the ratio of the mass of a
sample of the mixture (mt) to the number of moles of all species (nt) in the
sample.

Example 4: Calculate the average molecular weight of air from its:
(1) molar composition of 79% N2 and 21% O2 and
(2) composition by mass of 76.7% N2 and 23.3% O2.
Solution:

Example 5: Mixture contains 10 mole% C2H5OH, 75 mole % C4H8O2,
15 mole% CH3COOH. Calculate:
(a) Mass fractions of each component in the mixture.
(b) Average molecular weight of the mixture?
(c) Mass (kg) of a sample containing 25 kmol of C4H8O2?
Solution:

3.3 Concentration
(2) Parts per million (ppm) and parts per billion (ppb) – normally used
for expressing concentration of extremely dilute solutions.

3.4 Parts per million (ppm) and parts per billion (ppb)
ppm and ppb are normally used for expressing concentration of extremely
dilute solutions. The definitions may refer to mass ratios (for liquid) or mole
ratios (for gases) and signify how many parts (grams, moles) of the
species are present per million or billion parts (grams, moles) of the
mixture. If yi is the fraction of component i, then
Air containing 15 ppm SO2 (using molar basis) means that every million
moles of air contains 15 moles of SO2, or the mole fraction of SO2 in the
air is 15 ×10-6.

4. PRESSURE
Pressure is ratio of a force to the area on which the force acts. Pressure
units are force units divided by area units (e.g., N/m2 or Pascal (Pa),
dynes/cm2, lbf/in2 or psi).
Pabs = PG + Patm
Note: When using English units, absolute pressure and gauge pressure
are designated as psia and psig, respectively.
The most commonly used temperature scales are Celsius (°C), Fahrenheit
(°F), Kelvin (K) and Rankine (°R). Temperature is the average kinetic
energy possessed by the substance
