The spinodal curve for a binary liquid system is the locus of states for which
Thus it separates regions of stability from instability with respect to liquid/liquid phase splitting. For a given T. there are normally two spinodal compositions (if any). They are the same at a consolute temperature. On curve II of Fig. 12.13 they are a pair of compositions between
Suppose a liquid mixture is described by the symmetrical equation
(a)Find an expression for the spinodal compositions as a function of A(T).
(b)Assume that A(T) is the expression used to generate Fig. 15.2. Plot on a single graph the solubility curve and the spinodal curve. Discuss.
