Working out energies of hydrogen bonds by comparing chemical potential of vapour and condensed phase - equation derivation
I want to ask a question about working out the energy of a hydrogen bond between two water molecules, $w_{AA}$ using the chemical potentials of vapour and condensed phases.
I was reading K. Dill, ...

Cases when Raoult's law is unsolvable
Setup
Consider a closed binary mixture of known total molar composition $n_i$, held at volume $V$ and temperature $T$. The equilibrium phase composition is determined by $\mu_i^{vap} = \mu_i^{liq}$. ...

Is it possible to have only liquid in a closed container?
I recently read an answer by Aman Rusia for this question: Is a liquid in a container always in equilibrium with its vapour?
In it, they say that
You can't have a container filled with only ...

What causes both components of a binary gas mix to condensate at the same time for a given composition
Okay, so recently I encountered the temperature - mole fraction diagrams for binary vapour-liquid equilibrium. For now, I only consider two-component systems where the components are very similar and ...

Anhydrous ammonia vapor-liquid equilibrium
I have been given a anhydrous ammonia vapor liquid system in an air-tight container where the pressure is 30 bar and the temperature is 30 degrees. They claim the system is in equilibrium, which I ...
