IRE HEAT‘OP ABSORPTION OP HYDRAIED SILICA GEL HISTORICAL A coneidereble enount of reeeerch hee been done in recent yeere on the proPertiee of eiliee gel, eepeeielly on ite property of edecrption. This property end releted phenomene hee been investigeted extensively during recent yeere in thie leboretory. in e continuation of thie work, the heat of edeorpticn of hydreted eilice gel hee been eerried out with the purpoee of determining the heat of edeorption or the gel when it he: varying eeounte ct meter on it. Alec the heat of edeorption of the gel wee determined.in ecid end elkeline eolntione end detenlineticne were made to determine if the gel edecrbed eny ecid or eltely. Petriek end Grin-I1 did eone work on the heet of wetting of eiliee gel. They obteined veluee tor thie property of the gel, ueing the following liquide: weter, ethyl eleohol, eniline, benzene end cerbcn tetreehloride. They did not eveouete their gel end they elec need gel 'hiob had been finely divided. Since the gel they need wee not evecueted it would not be exPected thet their reenlte were the nerd-nu. They conceived of eilioe gel ee to have been e neee of eilice nuclei, eeoh nuclei being eurronnded fl‘ECE '.. r‘ ,4 -' r, "1 i. ‘j‘QIJ -. ‘d we r O .I 4. .. e ‘- ‘, ‘ '- - e I ".4 ., ’~ n, Ie‘._. .. e with a thin film of water. Having such a conception of silica gel they accounted for the heat of adsorption or wetting on the basis of surface energy changes that took place at the surface or each nuclei. Inch research has been done on the heat of adsorption of soils. Bouyouecs2 says that in the case of soils the maximum is reached when the soil has been heated to 107-c. for 24 hours. He also states that the amount of water necessary to produce the heat is com» putatively small. In an other article he says that the temperature rise of water by sudden acmpressicn amounts to 0.018'0. per lO atmospheres, and that the force of compression rises to such large values as 156 atmospheres. The heats of adsorption of some eleven organic liquids on charcoal were determined by Lamb and Coolidgea. They determined.the heats of adsorption by the expression h -Ime; where h represents the heat of adsorption per e.e. of vapor, x. the number of e.e. of vapor adsorbed, and. m. and n characteristic constants of the vapor adsorbed. .4. I. I a . .5 e- . ~ x. i I, - APPIRATUS AND MATERIAL Calorimeter:- A great deal of time was spent in constructing a calorimeter that would be suitable for this work. Several different types were tried but the adiabatic type was the one finally used. The difference in temperature of the outer and inner container was never allowed to be greater than 0.06' and very often it was less, and the time during which this difference existed was very short. The time at which the two containers are at maximum difference in temperature is when the bulb containing the gel is broken and the temperature of the liquid in the inner container goes up suddenly. However, by means of a large resistance used as a heating element, the temperature of the outside vessel is brought up quickly so that there is no more than c.05' difference between the two at any.time. All parts inside of the calorimeter were made of glass with the exception of the leads for the inside heating element. These were made of copper of such size as to produce no best when the current was flowing thru them. These leads were also lacquered to prevent corrosion by the liquids. The heating element in the inside vessel was a piece of platinum about 5 cme. long soldered onto the copper leads. The outside of the calorimeter was an earthen- were Jar about 16 inches tall and 10 inches in diameter. Inside of this Jar was an inverted bell-Jar. The space between these two vessels was filled with saw-dust and the tsp of the saw-dust filling was covered with a coating of paraffin to prevent an air current. This vessel was covered with a round piece of one inch board which fitted over the top very tightly. Thru this cover was a two inch hole in the center to allow the stirrer and the thermometer of the inside container to project out of it. There was also a hole for the stirrer thermometer, and leads for the heating element. Inside of this container was an evacuated Dewar flask about 12 inches tall and 1 6/8 inches inside diameter. This was supported in the center of the inverted bell-Jar and weighed down by means of a heavy lead weight. The space between the Dewar flask and the bell-Jar is filled with distilled water. Preparation of Gel:- The gel used was a product of The Silica Gel Corporation and was of good quality. All samples of gel were first freed of any particles that were brown or discolored in any way and also particles that were of a white color. Only the clear transparent particles being used. Approximately 8.6 g. samples of the gel were used in all cases. The gel was treated under different 'w I conditions with different experiments, the results being that the different samples under different conditions of treatment giving different values for the heat of adsorption. The samples of gel were placed in glass bulbs which were blown so that the wells became very thin, yet were strong enough to withstand being evacuated. These bulbs were then sealed off fram the air with the gel in them. One experiment was performed with several samples of gel Just as the gel was received, that is, without being treated in any way, using water. Other experiments were done using several samples of gel that had been (1) heated for 84 hours at 120cc., (2) for 4 hours at 250' and evacuated at the same time, and {5), evacuated for 1 hour without heating and combinations of heat and vacuum, the purpose being to get samples of gel with varying water content. The above experiments were repeated using 0.2 N Hz 804 solutions in place of water. The water used was distilled laboratory water which had been redistilled, and the sulfuric acid solution was made of this water and C.P. Hg 80‘. The thermometers used were Bureau of Standards thermometers. The one in the outside vessel being graduated to 0.1., and the one used on the inside of the Dewar flask being graduated to 0.01'. Method of Prodedure:- The liquid whose heat of adsorption was to be determined was put into the Dewar flask. Then the bulb containing the gel was put into the flask and the glass rod with a loop on the end of it was placed over the bulb to hold it down and keep it from getting in the way of the stirrer. Then the stepper with the thermometer, stirrer and thermo-element sealed in it was put into the flask. The flask was then put into the outside bath. The temperature was brought to the temperature of the liquid in the flask either by cooling or heating, as the case may be, during which operation the stirrers in both vessels being in motion. The temperature of the liquid in the flask was then noted and recorded. Then the bulb was broken and the temperature was noted every five seconds by means of a step-watch until a constant temperature was attained. The thme required for this rise in temperature was noted. Then enough heat was introduced into the system to produce the same rise in temperature in the same length of time. This was accomplished.by allowing a current from a 4 volt lead storage cell to pass thru a rheostat, a standard resistance and the thermo-element. The current was so adjusted that it would produce the same rise in temperature in the same length of time that the gel did. In this way all losses were corrected.

Then the potential dr0p across the thermo-element was measured in the same way by throwing the switch in the other direction. Knowing the current and the potential drOp, the resistance can be calculated. Method of Calculating the heat of adsorption:- Joule's law states that 2 H (calories) -.l__£_E or B _ E I t 4e18 ‘.18 Knowing the current, potential drOp and the thme, the amount of heat introduced into the system can be calculated. How this gives the number of calories pro- duced by the current and which caused the liquid in the calorimeter to rise the same number of degrees in the same length of time as the gel did. It is necessary to use a current of such value that it will produce the same rise in temperature in the same length of time as the gel, so that losses due to conduction and radiation will be accounted for. This heat is due to all the gel added. How to obtain the heat due to one gram of gel or the heat of adsorption of the gel, it will be necessary to divide the total amount of heat by the number of grams of gel used.

SOme of the early investigators to advance this theory are Jungh4, .Rose5, and Parksa. This has been more recently continued by latrick and Grimm1 and Lamb and Coolidge3 by their data on the heat of adsorption of water. It is quite apparent that the heat of adsorption is due to a change of concentration of the molecules of the liquid at the surface or in the pores of the gel. This has been recently continued by Ewing and Spursay7 in their determination of the density of water adsorbed on silica gel. They found that the density of water increased when adsorbed on silica gel up to the value 1.6869 g. of water. They noticed that heat was liberated when the gel was allowed to absorb water, but they did not make any measurements on it. They found a close correlation between the density values for 1.6867 g. and 0.6367 g. of adsorbed water which, they said, _ indicated one phase of water on the gel. The mean density values for the two larger quantities of adsorbed water are less than the density of liquid water at the operating 20 temperature, indicating the presence of three phases of water: compressed water, liquid water, and water vapor. This water vapor, they said, exerts only a low vapor pressure; hence, all three forms of water are held on the gel under pressure. Then by calculations based upon the volume of the adsorbed water in the runs where the silica gel contained 1.6867 g. or 0.6357 g. of water, and a correlation of Bridgeman's compressibility data, it was shown that in these cases the pressure on the adsorbed water was of the magnitude of 750 atmospheres. Thus, when the molecules of water are compressed at the surface or in the pores of the gel, there is a decrease in the kinetic energy of the molecules. In order to have a decrease.in the kinetic energy,heat is liberated which is an increase in the potential energy of the molecules. This is the Opposite of such phenmmena as latent heat of vaporisation, in which case the molecules are driven farther apart due to the addition of heat to the system and the heat being transfonmed into kinetic energy of the molecules. The forces acting in this phenomena are the stray fields around the molecules of the wetting substance and the molecules of the substance being wetted. The greater these stray fields, the less the tendency to exhibit this phenamena. 21 The results given in Tables I to IV inclusive, were obtained.with a gel that had a maximum water content of 6.2%. The results indicate that there is a general lincrease in the heat of adsorption as the water content of the gel is decreased. The results given in Tables 7 to II inclusive, show somewhat the same thing. There is a decided increase in the heat of wetting between the gel containing 16.6% water and the gel containing 8.6%Iwater. But there is a large difference in the heat of wetting of the gel with 8.5% and that with 3%. u the water content decreases below 3%, the heat of wetting again increases rapidly until the maximum ralue is reached. It is interesting to note that the largest rise in temperature took place very shortly after the gel was exposed to the liquid and that this initial rise in temperature was larger and took place acre quickly with the gel that had the smaller'asounts of water on it. we obtained.acre nearly a wetting of the gel by the liquid, as indicated by the results given in.Tebles IV and IX, because when the gel is heated and evacuated, the water is in the gaseous state, and a smaller quantity can be held,and is probably held, on the surface of the gel. new, when the gel is again cooled, the water becomes liquid and occupies a.much smaller volume than when in the gaseous state. This condensation of the gaseous water leaves a 88 large portion of the surface of the gel with nothing adsorbed on it. This free surface then absorbs the liquid with great rapidity and liberates a large amount of energy. The larger this free surface the greater the amount of energy liberated. According to Patrick and Grimml, in order to get a heat of wetting of 19.22 Cal. per gram of gel it is necessary that the gel exhibit a surface of 6.9 x 107 cm.3. which is an enormously large surface. It is evident that the surface energy is therefore sufficient to explain the observed heet effects. Lamb and Coolidge3 in their determinations on the heat of adsorption of vapors on charcoal have calculated that the amount of carbos disulfide adsorbed on a gram of charcoal is 0.4 cc at atmospheric pressure and about 0.26 so under a pressure of 37,000 atmospheres. The carbon disulfide was sufficient to fill all the capillaries which had a volume of o.cs cc. Assuming the capillary area to be 100 square meters and that the thickness of a molecular layer is l x 10"8 cm., then the above amount of carbon disulfide if spread over the whole surface would have given a layer ‘0 molecules deep. Lamb and Coolidgea regard the heat effect as due to two factors, the heat of liquefication of the gas and the heat effect due to further compression of the liquid.by the adhesive forces of the adsorbent. The latter or not heat of adsorption, is equal to the heat of wetting at the saturation pressure of the liquid. Barkins and Ewihge have obtained direct experimental evidence of the compression of a layer of liquid adsorbed on a solid in the case of activated charcoal and organic liquids. The attractive forces between the charcoal and the various liquids are shown to be constant and of the order of 30 to 40 thousand a atmospheres, in agreement with the findings of Lamb and Coolidge3. It is pointed out that experiments on the internal pressure of the liquids have not succeeded in demonstrating pressures higher than 78 atmospheres. Harkina and.Ewing derive the heat of ‘ adsorption of a liquid.by a solid from surface energy considerations as follows: If we consider that the solid is immersed in the liquid against air, the net result is that the surface of the solid is replaced by a solid - liquid interface. The heat of adsorption, «as, is then equal to the total -ount of energy given off in the process when carried out isothermally, ls, or -Qa - Is - Es - Ed Where Is and Bi are respectively the total energies of the solid surface and of the interface. The heat of adsorption of a liquid on a solid has always been found to be positive, indicating that the total surface of the solid is greater than that of the interface. Table III is a emery of the results given in Tables V to 11 inclusive. In Tables 1111, XIV, and IV are given the results obtained by wetting the gel having the indicated water contents with approximately 0.8] sulfuric acid. These results agree very well with those obtained for water and gel having on it the same amount of water. This indicates that the presence of sulfuric acid does not effect the heat of wetting of the gel. The acid was analysed before and after it was exposed te the gel, and it was found that the concentration increased from 0.19330 before exposure to 0.1986 after exposure. This indicates that water and not sulfuric acid was ad- sorbed by the gel. Bartell andiliiller9 in their work on the adsorption by sugar charcoal of acid and basic dyes say that inorganic acids are but comparatively slightly adsorbed by charcoal because the inorganic onion replaces more feebly the on; ion. Inorganic bases are adsorbed scarcely at all, owing to the fact that metals less noble than H do not replace 3’ frmm Carbon. 25 Silica gel does not seem to have an affinity for acid radicals much the same as carboh. in attempt was made to obtain the heat of wetting of silica gel with sodium hydroxide solution but no constant temperature could be obtained which indicated that the alkaly reacted with the gel. 26 SUMMARY 1. Some heats of wetting of silica gel with water were obtained with the gel containing varying amounts of water on it. 2. The heat of wetting increased more rapidly as the amount of water on the gel became smaller, that is, there was a very large increase in the heat of wetting between the gel that had 1% water on it and the gel that had very little or no water on it. 3. The heat of wetting of a 0.2N solution of sulfuric acid was obtained and found to be the same as for water along. 4. No value for the heat of wetting of sodium hydroxide was obtained because it was thought that the alkaly reacted with the gel. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 8. 27 REFERENCES ratriok and Grimm 3001‘. me Cheme SOC. 45,3144 (1921) Bouyoucos Technical Bulletin No. 42, Soil Science, Vol. 17, No. 2, tab. 1924, Soil Science, Vol. 19, No. 2, 1926, Lamb and Coolidge Jour.
