P-V-T Behaviour of Gas Mixtures
• Ideal gas : molecules do not influenced by other molecules (low
densities  low pressure or high temperature).
• Dalton’s law of additive pressures, Amagat’s law of additive volumes.
12
Dalton’s law of Partial Pressures
• The pressure of a gas mixture is equal to sum of the pressures each
gas would exert if it existed alone at the mixture temperature and
volume.
13
Amagat’s law of additive volumes
• The volume of a gas mixture is equal to the sum of the volumes of
each gas would occupy, if it existed alone at the mixture pressure
and temperature.

Evaluating Entropy
• Entropy is function of pressure and temperature
• On molar basis:
