Solubility Constant Conversion - Step by Step Guide

AI Thread Summary
The discussion focuses on converting solubility constants from one unit to another, specifically from cm^3 polymer*atm to g H2O/cm^3 air. The original formula provided indicates solubility under specific conditions of temperature and humidity. Users express difficulty in understanding the conversion process and seek a detailed step-by-step guide. The conversation highlights the complexity of solubility calculations in polymer chemistry. Clear guidance on unit conversion is essential for accurate scientific analysis.

Dear all,

It is stated in a literature that:

Solubility = [87 cm^3(STP) H20]/ [cm^3 polymer*atm] = 93,28 (g H20/cm^3 polymer)/ (g H20/cm^3 air)

where the storage conditions is 28 degress celcius and 70% relative humidity, at 1 atm.

My question, how do i convert from the first unit to the second? A step to step outline would be appreciated. I just can't get my head around this.

Many thanks,

Wen Zhe

Thread 'Query on Isentropic relationships (such as PV^gamma = constant)'

Hi all, I have a question. So from the derivation of the Isentropic process relationship PV^gamma = constant, there is a step dW = PdV, which can only be said for quasi-equilibrium (or reversible) processes. As such I believe PV^gamma = constant (and the family of equations) should not be applicable to just adiabatic processes? Ie, it should be applicable only for adiabatic + reversible = isentropic processes? However, I've seen couple of online notes/books, and...

Thread 'Dry sump pump issue'

I have an engine that uses a dry sump oiling system. The oil collection pan has three AN fittings to use for scavenging. Two of the fittings are approximately on the same level, the third is about 1/2 to 3/4 inch higher than the other two. The system ran for years with no problem using a three stage pump (one pressure and two scavenge stages). The two scavenge stages were connected at times to any two of the three AN fittings on the tank. Recently I tried an upgrade to a four stage pump...
