THE THERhlODYX;A&lIC PROPERTIES OF TZ-PROPYLALCOHOL B Y J. F.;\IATHEWS AND J. J. MCKETTA Department of Chemical Engineering, University of Texas, Austin, Texas Recezzed September I , 1,960
Vapor heat capacities of n-propyl alcohol have been measured from 371.2 to 451.2"K. at selected pressures from 1/3 to 5/3 atmospheres. Latent heats of vaporization have also been measured from 343.9 to 384.5"K. The model of an equilibrium formation of dimers and tetramers has been utilized to represent the behavior of the vapor heat capacity as a function of pressure and ideal heat capacities have been determined. These values of CO , have been used, along with molecular structure and spectroscopic data and barrier assignments for the methyl and hydroxyl rotating tops, to determine the height of the transbarrier for the ethyl group and the energy difference between rotational tautomers. Thermodynamic properties in the ideal gaseous state have been calculated a t selected temperatures from 0 to 1000°K.

Experimental Apparatus.-The flow calorimeter used in this work was orivinally constructed by Pennington4 and was of the same de& as the apparatus described by Waddington, et a1.,6 and McCullough, et a1.6 Material.-The sample of n-propyl alcohol used in the measurements was obtained from the Celanese Corporation of America. The analysis (infrared) was 98.49% n-propyl alcohol, 1.51y0 sec-butyl alcohol and negligible amounts of water and other impurities. This original material was distilled twice through a 1.2 meter column packed with glass rings. The final distillate had a boiling range of less than 0.02'. This distillate was then vacuum distilled iblilb-to. bulb) into receivers for introduction into the apparatus. KO significant changes were noted in the physical properties of this compound during the course of the exprrimental work.

Direct vapor heat capacity measurements have been made by Sinlre and DeVrie@ from 373 to 437°K. a t a pressure of 750 mm. with an estimated accuracy uncertainty of &0.2 cal./(inole)( "K.). Bennevit'z and Rossnerl* have report,ed a da.tum at 410%. and a pressure of 748 mm., and Jatkar and Lakshimarayan'5 have deduced the vapor heat capacity at 407OK. from measurements of sonic velocity. For ease of compariijon, these reported values are presented along with those of the present work in Fig. 2 , after being corrected to ideal heat capacities by the gas imperfection equations which will be developed in the next section. Jatksr's value was not corrected, as it is presumed that a value obtained from the velocity of sound would be an "ideal" heat capacit'y.
Correction for Gas Imperfection In order to determine the ideal heat capacities of a compound the observed heat capacities must be corrected t'o z8ro pressure by a consideration of the effects of gas imperfection. This may be done by using the Tvell-known thermodynamic relationship

where A is a function of the second virial coefficient and ACp is a small correction term which may be det'ermined by a t'rial and error procedure. However, as Fig. l shows, n-propyl alcohol does not belong to this class of compounds; and another method must be used to evaluate t'he effects of gap imperfection.

This approach has been discussed by several worker^^^-^^ and has been used primarily t o describe the behavior of the experimental second virial coefficients of hydrocarbons and other more or less ideal substances. Weltner and I'it.zerZ0measured the vapor heat capacit,ies of methyl alcohol and used this concept of associat'ion to explain the large deviations from ideality which were encountered with tha,t' substanee. These workers found that an assumption of dimer and t'etramer formation best described the variat,ion of heat capacity wit'h pressure. Based on this assumption of an equilibrium between monomers and tetramers and dimers, t'he equation of state of methyl alcohol gas becomes (16) 0. R. Foz and ,I. M. Tidal, A n d e s 3 s . y quim.

The constants in the above equations were determined by simultaneously fitting equation 4 to some available P-V-T data and equation 7 to the experimental vapor heat capacities. Barrowz1 has used the same approach on ethyl alcohol. Kretschmer and WiebeZ2have since made an extensive study of the P-V-T properties of methyl alcohol, ethyl alcohol and isopropyl alcohol and have determined that equation 4 does indeed represent the observed gaseous behavior very well and is much better than an equation of the form RT P

for correlating vapor heat capacity. n-Propyl Alcohol.-Essentially the same method as described above has been used in this work to determine the effects of gas imperfection on vapor heat capacity. The method of evaluation of the constants in equations 4 through 9 depends on the type of P-V-T data available. Foz, et have made some P-V-T measurements on n-propyl alcohol and present some values of B which they obtained by fitting their data to an equation of state of the same form as equation 4 (following the suggestion of Weltner and PitzerZ0). For n-propyl alcohol the constants in equation 5 were adjusted to give the best fit to the B values of FOB, et a1.,23and then using these constants in equation 8, the constants of equation 9 were determined to give the best representation of all the heat capacity data. The equations thus derived are B = 130

The saturation curve calculated from equation 16 is presented in Fig 3. Values of the saturated vapor volume ( V ) may be calculated from the Clapeyron equation as
with the different quantities in consistent units. The latent heats of vaporization (AH,) have been taken from the experimental values of this work, values of ( d T / b p ) v have been determined from equation 1, and the liquid molar volumes (V,) have been taken from Young's work on orthobaric densitiesaZ4 Values of the total gas imperfection thus calculated are presented in Fig. 3 also. Finally, direct measurements of total gas imperfection have been taken from YouiigZ4and plotted in Fig. 3. It must be emphasized that these calculated values of total gas imperiection are all for saturation conditions since ( T i - 12?'/p) is a function of pressure as well as temperature. The agreement among the values, calculated by the three different methods described above, is very satisfactory (Fig. 3). This is evidence that the procedure used in this work for the estimation of gas imperfection is a reasonable one.

tions were assumed for two of the rotating tops, and the parameters of the potential barrier of the third top were rsdjusted to give the best representation of the ex:perimental ideal vapor heat capacities. Rotational Tiautomerism.-Rotation about the central carbon-to-carbon bond in n-propyl alcohol results in one trans and two skew rotational tautomers. These tautomers would be expected to have different inomeints of inertia and different normal vibrational frequencies. P i t ~ e has r ~ ~shown that the t’hermodynamic properties are approximately the same for each tautomer, and thus it is sufficient to make t,he calculations for only one form. According to BertlnelotZ6and Golik, et aZ.,27the most stable configuration of the n-propyl alcohol molecule is the planar, or trans form. Calculations in this work are based on the trans form. Moments of Inertia of the n-Propyl Alcohol Molecule:-The product of the principal moments of inertia, and the reduced moments of the rotating tops were calculated using the formalized procedure of Kilpatrick an’dPitzer.28 Since a direct determination of bond distances and bond angleis in the n-propyl alcohol molecule has not been published, these quantities were estimated from those reported for methyl alcohol, ethyl alcohol and isopropyl a 1 ~ 0 h o 1 . ~The ~ values used were Bond 1eng;ths GH 1.09 A.

The restricted rotator contributions to the thermodynamic properties vere taken from the tables of Pitzer and G ~ i n and n ~ from ~ the extension of these tables by Li and P i t ~ e r . ~ ~ Comparisons with Experimental Data.-With the information about rotation, vibration, internal rotation, etc., as discussed in the preceding sections, ideal gaseous heat capacities were calculated at temperatures corresponding to the experimental runs. These calculations (and all other calculations of thermodynamic properties in this work) are based on the rigid rotator, harmonic oscillator approximation, with interactions between rotation and vibration and among internal rotations neglected. It is desirable to include a term for the effects of anharmonicity on the thermodynamic properties, but in the present case there are insuffirient data for this purpose. A comparison betveen the calculated and experimental heat capacities in the ideal gaseous qtate is shown in Table 11. The maximum deviation is o.14yO and the average deviation is 0.0670. The calculated CPofit the smoothed values of equation 15 somewhat better, with the maximum deriation being 0.08% and the average 0.06Vc7,. The value of entropy of n-propyl alcohol given (38) K.
