Perlawar Class: M.Sc Chemistry 1 year Seminar Topic: Three Component System Guided by: Dr Mamta Wagh Ma’am Three Component System 1. For a three component system, the phase rule becomes F = 5 – P 2. A system having only one phase, the phase diagram must illustrate four variables which is difficult. 3. Hence Pressure P & Temperature T fixed for a given diagram. 4. The relative amounts of the three component usually shown as percentages by mass can be shown on the triangular plot. 1.The corners of the triangle labelled A, B and C correspond to the pure components A, B and C respectively. 2.The side of the triangle opposite the corner labelled A, for instance implies the absence of A. 3.Thus, the horizontal lines across the triangle show Fig.1 Representation of the increasing percentage of A three component system from zero at the base to 100% at the apex. 4. Similarly the percentages of B and C are given by the distances from the other two sides to the remaining two Apices.
5. The total composition is always 100%
because of the geometrical result that the sum of the three perpendicular distances from any point to the three sides of the triangle is always equal to the height of the triangle.
6. The simplest three component systems
are those in which a liquid system breaks down into two phases. Acetic Acid, Chloroform & Water System [CH3COOH-CHCL3-H2O SYSTEM] 1. CHCL3-H20 are partially miscible and hence forms two different layers each saturated with the other component. 2. The first layer will be having saturation solution of water in chloroform represented as “ b” & in another layer we will get saturation solution of chloroform in water represented as “c” in the given fig.2 • In case of Phenol Water System , we increased Temperature and with Increasing T the mutual solubility of the system increased. And the highest miscibility temperature was termed as Critical Solution Temperature CST or Upper Consulate Temperature. • But in this system of CHCL3-CH3COOH-H2O, we aren’t changing the T. Here in the three component system we add the third component i.e Acetic acid without changing the temperature and this third component is miscible both the liquids. • When a third substance is added in a heterogeneous solution having two different layers and that substance is soluble in both the layers then it favours the mutual solubility of the system. • The % of water will increase in the saturated solution of water in chloroform and similarly the % of chloroform will increase in saturated solution of chloroform in water. • Due to this the points “b & c” will shift their positions and hence we will get tie lines . • On increasing the amount of CH3COOH added in the system the shorter will be the distance between the tie lines until these tie lines get merge to form a point. • That unique point on the two phase boundary is shown by “d”. This point is called the isothermal critical point / The plait point. • The feature of this point is that it’s composition is identical for both layers. • The plait point will be either towards left hand or right hand side depending upon the partial solubility of A in B & C. • Any solution (mixture ) outside the curve will be homogeneous and inside it will be heterogeneous. • Application of phase rule to a system corresponding to a point in the two phase region gives F = 3.
• The three degrees of
freedom can be accounted by P , T and Fig. 2. The three component system one composition consisting of Acetic acid-chloroform- variable. water at 1 atm pressure. i] A is more miscible in C ii] A is more miscible in B iii] A is equally miscible in B &C. Reference
