chemical action on each otherexerts a pressure which is the sum of the pressures which would be exerted by eachcomponent gas separately if it occupied the containing vessel alone at the giventemperature. Joule and Thomsons principle. When a gas escapes through an orifice 0, Fig.24, from a region CC… … porous plug Fig. 25. we have what is called free expansion. When a gas in a cylinder expands againsta receding piston* we have what may be called constrained expansion. Duringconstrained expansion (against a receding piston) a gas does work, as in a steamengine, the heat-energy contained in the gas…
