Equilibrium Partitioning of Organic Compounds

This lecture covers the equilibrium partitioning of organic compounds between two phases, exploring the Gibbs Phase Rule and the behavior of a single component system at different temperatures and pressures. It delves into the transitions between solid, liquid, and gas phases, illustrating the concept with the example of n-Eicosane. The lecture also discusses the chemical potential in liquid-vapor and solid-vapor equilibrium, as well as the temperature dependence of vaporization processes. Estimation methods for vapor pressure and the molecular contributions to vapor pressure are also explained.
