Study Notes
Física
Vectores
- Vector components are described.
- Vectors can be represented as $\vec{A} = A_x\hat{i} + A_y\hat{j}$ with $A_x = A\cos(\theta)$ and $A_y = A\sin(\theta)$.
- Resultant vector $\vec{R}$ from adding vectors $\vec{A}$ and $\vec{B}$ is given by $\vec{R} = \vec{A} + \vec{B} = (A_x + B_x)\hat{i} + (A_y + B_y)\hat{j}$.
- $R_X = A_X + B_X$ and $R_Y = A_Y + B_Y$.
- The magnitude of the resultant vector, $R$, is $\sqrt{R_X^2 + R_Y^2}$.
- The angle $\θ$ of the resultant vector is $\arctan(\frac{R_Y}{R_X})$.
Vector Summation - Example
- Vector $\vec{A} = 20u \measuredangle 60°$ and $\vec{B} = 30u \measuredangle 30°$ are two vectors being summed.
- $A_x = 20\cos(60°) = 10u$, $A_y = 20\sin(60°) = 17.32u$, $B_x = 30\cos(30°) = 25.98u$, and $B_y = 30\sin(30°) = 15u$.
- $R_x = 10u + 25.98u = 35.98u$ and $R_y = 17.32u + 15u = 32.32u$.
- The magnitude of the resultant vector, $R = \sqrt{(35.98u)^2 + (32.32u)^2} = 48.42u$.
- The angle of the resultant vector, $θ = \arctan(\frac{32.32u}{35.98u}) = 42.2°$.
Chemical Engineering Thermodynamics
Vapor-Liquid Equilibrium (VLE) - Basic Concepts
- For pure species, vapor pressure $P^{sat}$ depends only on temperature.
- For mixtures, phase diagrams are more complex.
- Bubble Point: Saturated liquid state where first vapor bubble appears.
- Dew Point: Saturated vapor state where first liquid drop appears.
T-x-y Diagram
- Saturated liquid line is the bubble-point curve.
- Saturated vapor line is the dew-point curve.
- The liquid region is below the bubble-point curve.
- The vapor region is above the dew-point curve.
- The two-phase region lies between the bubble-point and dew-point curves.
- Where $x_i$ is the mole fraction of component $i$ in the liquid phase, $y_i$ is the mole fraction of component $i$ in the vapor phase, and $T$ is the temperature.
P-x-y Diagram
- The saturated liquid line is the bubble-point curve.
- Saturated vapor line is the dew-point curve.
- Liquid region is above the bubble-point curve.
- Vapor region is below the dew-point curve.
- Two-phase region is between the bubble-point and dew-point curves.
- Where $x_i$ is the mole fraction of component $i$ in the liquid phase, $y_i$ is the mole fraction of component $i$ in the vapor phase, and $P$ is the pressure.
Phase Rule
- The phase rule is $F = 2 - \pi + N$.
- Where $F$ is degrees of freedom, $\pi$ is the number of phases, and $N$ is the number of components.
- Pure species, single phase: $F = 2 - 1 + 1 = 2$ (T and P can be independently varied).
- Pure species, two phases in equilibrium: $F = 2 - 2 + 1 = 1$ (T or P can be chosen, but not both).
- Binary mixture, single phase: $F = 2 - 1 + 2 = 3$ (T, P, and composition can be independently varied).
- Binary mixture, two phases in equilibrium: $F = 2 - 2 + 2 = 2$ (T and P can be chosen, composition is then fixed).
Flash Calculation
- The flash calculation is: Given overall composition ${z_i}$, $T$, and $P$.
- Find ${x_i}$, ${y_i}$, $V$ (vapor fraction).
- The equilibrium Relation: $y_i = K_i x_i$.
- Material Balance: $z_i = V y_i + L x_i$ where $L$ is the liquid fraction and $V+L = 1$.
- Combining: $z_i = V K_i x_i + (1-V)x_i$.
- Solving for $x_i$: $x_i = \frac{z_i}{V K_i + (1-V)}$.
- Summation Constraint: $\sum{x_i} = 1.0$.
- Rachford-Rice equation: $\sum{\frac{z_i (K_i - 1)}{1 + V(K_i - 1)}} = 0$.
- It is solved for $V$ (e.g., using Newton's method), then calculate $x_i$ and $y_i = K_i x_i$.
VLE from Equations of State
- Equation of state (e.g., Peng-Robinson) calculates fugacity coefficients for each component in liquid and vapor phases.
- Equilibrium criteria: $\hat{f}{i}^{L} = \hat{f}{i}^{V}$.
- $\hat{\phi}{i}^{L} x_i P = \hat{\phi}{i}^{V} y_i P$.
- $y_i = \frac{\hat{\phi}{i}^{L}}{\hat{\phi}{i}^{V}} x_i = K_i x_i$.
- $\hat{\phi}{i}^{L}$ and $\hat{\phi}{i}^{V}$ are the fugacity coefficients of component $i$ in the liquid and vapor phases.

Chemical Kinetics
Fundamentals of Chemical Kinetics
- Chemical kinetics (reaction kinetics): study of reaction rates.
- Explores how reaction conditions affect reaction speed & elucidates reaction mechanisms.
Reaction Rate
- The reaction rate is the change in the concentration of reactants or products per unit time.
- For a reaction $aA + bB \rightarrow cC + dD$, the reaction rate can be expressed as $v = -\frac{1}{a}\frac{d[A]}{dt} = -\frac{1}{b}\frac{d[B]}{dt} = \frac{1}{c}\frac{d[C]}{dt} = \frac{1}{d}\frac{d[D]}{dt}$.
- The rate is positive and considers the stoichiometric coefficients.
- Higher concentrations usually lead to faster reaction rates.
- Higher temperatures usually lead to faster reaction rates.
- For reactions involving solids, a larger surface area leads to a faster reaction rate.
- Catalysts speed up reactions without being consumed.
- For reactions involving gases, higher pressure usually leads to faster reaction rates.
- Some reactions are accelerated by light (photochemical reactions).
Rate Law
- Rate LawDefinition: Equation that relates the reaction rate to reactant concentrations.
- For a reaction $aA + bB \rightarrow cC + dD$, the rate law can be expressed as $v = k[A]^m[B]^n$
- Where $k$ is the rate constant, $m$ and $n$ are reaction orders with respect to reactants A and B, and the overall reaction order is $m + n$.
- Reaction orders ($m$ and $n$) are experimentally determined, not related to stoichiometric coefficients ($a$ and $b$).
- The rate constant $k$ depends on temperature.
- Zero-Order Rate Law: $v = k$.
- First-Order Rate Law: $v = k[A]$.
- Second-Order Rate Law: $v = k[A]^2$ or $v = k[A][B]$.
Reaction Order
- Definition: Power to which the concentration of a reactant is raised in a rate law.
- Determination: Determined experimentally.
- Initial Rates Method: Measure initial reaction rate for different initial reactant concentrations.
- Graphical Method: Plot reactant concentration vs. time, determine order from the curve’s shape.
- Integrated Rate Law Method: Use integrated rate law to determine the order.
- Integrated rate laws relate the concentration of a reactant to time.
- Zero-Order: $[A] = [A]_0 - kt$.
- First-Order: $ln[A] = ln[A]_0 - kt$.
- Second-Order: $\frac{1}{[A]} = \frac{1}{[A]_0} + kt$.
- $[A]$: Concentration of reactant A at time $t$.
- $[A]_0$: Initial concentration of reactant A.
- $k$: Rate constant.
- Half-Life: Time required for reactant concentration to decrease to one-half its initial value ($t_{1/2}$).
- Zero-Order: $t_{1/2} = \frac{[A]_0}{2k}$.
- First-Order: $t_{1/2} = \frac{0.693}{k}$.
- Second-Order: $t_{1/2} = \frac{1}{k[A]_0}$.
Reaction Mechanism
- Definition: Sequence of elementary steps that make up a complex reaction.
- Elementary Step: A reaction that occurs in a single step.
- Rate-Determining Step: The slowest step in the reaction mechanism determining the overall rate.
- Catalyst: Speeds up a reaction without being consumed.
- Homogeneous Catalysis: The catalyst is in the same phase as the reactants.
- Heterogeneous Catalysis: The catalyst is in a different phase from the reactants.
- Enzyme Catalysis: Enzymes are biological catalysts that speed up biochemical reactions.
Collision Theory
- Reactant molecules need to collide with each other to react.
- Reactant molecules must collide with the correct orientation to react.
- Reactant molecules need to collide with enough energy (activation energy).
- Activation Energy ($E_a$): Minimum energy required for a reaction.
- Arrhenius Equation: $k = Ae^{-\frac{E_a}{RT}}$.
- $k$ is the rate constant, $A$ is the pre-exponential factor, $E_a$ is the activation energy, $R$ is the gas constant, & $T$ is temperature in Kelvin.
Arrhenius Equation
- The Arrhenius equation is useful for understanding the temperature dependence of reaction rates.
- It is useful for determining the activation energy of a reaction.

Lecture 15: October 26, 2023 - Review & Repeated Games
Problem 1: Strategic Interaction Model Review
- $N$ countries $i = 1, \dots, N$.
- Each country chooses emissions level $e_i \geq 0$. Aggregate emissions: $E = \sum_{i=1}^N e_i$. Payoffs: $\pi_i(e_i, E) = \underbrace{a e_i}{\text{Benefit from pollution}} - \underbrace{b E^2}{\text{Damage from pollution}}$. $a, b > 0$.
(a) Nash Equilibrium
- FOC: $\frac{\partial \pi_i}{\partial e_i} = a - 2bE = 0$. Nash equilibrium condition: $a - 2bE = 0$ for all $i$, thus $E^* = \frac{a}{2b}$.
- Equilibrium requires countries to take the same action, thus $e_i = e_j$ for all $i, j$, so $E = N e_i = \frac{a}{2b}$. Nash equilibrium for each country is $e_i^* = \frac{a}{2bN}$.
(b) Aggregate Payoff Maximization
- Maximize $\sum_{i=1}^N \pi_i(e_i, E)$:
- $\sum_{i=1}^N \pi_i(e_i, E) = \sum_{i=1}^N (ae_i - bE^2) = aE - NbE^2$. Then FOC: $a - 2NbE = 0$, so $E^{} = \frac{a}{2Nb}$ and $e_i^{} = \frac{a}{2N^2b}$.
(c) Treaty Scenario
- $N=2$, countries sign self-enforcing treaty (Nash equilibrium).
- Symmetric treaty ($e_1 = e_2 = e$) maximizes aggregate welfare.
- $\max_e 2(ae - b(2e)^2)$. FOC: $2(a - 4b(2e)) = 0$, so $e = \frac{a}{8b}$.
- Check self-enforcement: If country $i$ chooses $e = \frac{a}{8b}$, what is country $j$'s best response?
- $\max_{e_j} a e_j - b (e_j + \frac{a}{8b})^2$. FOC: $a - 2b (e_j + \frac{a}{8b}) = 0$, so $e_j = \frac{a}{4b} - \frac{a}{8b} = \frac{a}{8b}$. Thus the treaty is a Nash equilibrium.
Repeated Games and Cooperation
-
Prisoner's dilemma:
Cooperate Defect Cooperate 3, 3 0, 4 Defect 4, 0 $\color{red}{1, 1}$ Unique Nash equilibrium: (Defect, Defect).
-
Repeating the game $T$ times causes both players will defect in every period due to backwards induction.
-
Strategies for Infinitely Repeated Games
-
Grim Trigger: Player 1 In the 1st period, cooperate, in every subsequent period, do what your opponent did in the previous period.
-
Cooperation is a Nash equilibrium if the discount factor $\delta \geq \frac{1}{3}$ if defect and if $ \frac{3}{1-\delta} \geq 4 + \frac{\delta}{1-\delta} 1$ if cooperate
-
Folk Theorem: Any individually rational payoff can be supported as a Nash equilibrium in infinitely repeated games if players are sufficiently patient.

- Ecuaciones Separables
- Una Ecuación Diferencial de Primer Orden es separable, si se puede escribir en la forma: $\frac{dy}{dx} = f(x)g(y)$.
- Para resolver una ecuación separable, se separan las variables y se integran ambos lados.
Ecuaciones Homogéneas
- Una función es homogénea de grado $n$ si: $f(tx, ty) = t^n f(x, y)$.
- Una Ecuación Diferencial de la forma $\frac{dy}{dx} = f(x, y)$, es homogénea si $f(x, y)$ es una función homogénea de grado 0.
- Para resolver una ecuación homogénea, se hace la sustitución $y = vx$, de donde $\frac{dy}{dx} = v + x \frac{dv}{dx}$, y se reduce a una ecuación separable.
Ecuaciones Exactas
- Una Ecuación Diferencial de la forma $M(x, y)dx + N(x, y)dy = 0$, es exacta si existe una función $u(x, y)$ tal que: $\frac{\partial u}{\partial x} = M(x, y) \quad \text{y} \quad \frac{\partial u}{\partial y} = N(x, y)$.
- La condición necesaria y suficiente para que una ecuación sea exacta es: $\frac{\partial M}{\partial y} = \frac{\partial N}{\partial x}$.
- La solución general es $u(x, y) = C$, donde $C$ es una constante. Para encontrar $u(x, y)$, se integra $M(x, y)$ con respecto a $x$ o $N(x, y)$ con respecto a $y$, y luego se determina la función restante utilizando la otra ecuación.
Factor Integrante
- Si una Ecuación Diferencial no es exacta, a veces se puede hacer exacta multiplicándola por un factor integrante $\mu(x, y)$.$\mu(x, y)M(x, y)dx + \mu(x, y)N(x, y)dy = 0$
- El factor integrante depende de si la función es solo de $x$ o solo de $y$.
Ecuaciones Lineales
- Una ecuación diferencial de primer orden tiene la forma:$\frac{dy}{dx} + P(x)y = Q(x)$
- Se encuentra el factor integrante $\mu(x)$ definido como:$\qquad \mu(x) = e^{\int P(x) dx}$
Ecuaciones de Bernoulli
- Una ecuación de Bernoulli, tiene la forma: $\frac{dy}{dx} + P(x)y = Q(x)y^n$
- Se realiza la sustitución $v = y^{1-n}$. Entonces, $\frac{dv}{dx} = (1-n)y^{-n}\frac{dy}{dx}$.
- Es una ecuación lineal en $v$ que se puede resolver usando el método del factor integrante.
Análisis de Fourier
Funciones Ortogonales
- A set of functions ${\phi_n(t)}$, $n = 1, 2, 3,...$ is orthogonal on the interval $a \le t \le b$ if
$\qquad \int_a^b \phi_m(t) \phi_n(t) dt = \begin{cases} 0, & m \neq n \ K_n, & m = n \end{cases}$
- $K_n$ represents constant (energy).
Serie De Fourier
- Si se cumplen ciertas condiciones (función de Dirichlet), $f(t)$ puede expandirse en serie de Fourier:
$\qquad f(t) = a_0 + \sum_{n=1}^{\infty} (a_n \cos(n \omega_0 t) + b_n \sin(n \omega_0 t))$
$\qquad \omega_0 = \frac{2\pi}{T}$ is the coefficients.
$\qquad a_0 = \frac{1}{T} \int_{t_0}^{t_0 + T} f(t) dt$
$\qquad a_n = \frac{2}{T} \int_{t_0}^{t_0 + T} f(t) \cos(n \omega_0 t) dt$
$\qquad b_n = \frac{2}{T} \int_{t_0}^{t_0 + T} f(t) \sin(n \omega_0 t) dt$

Absolute Maxima and Minima
- $f(c)$ has an absolute maximum on interval $I$ if $f(c)\ge f(x)$ for all $x$ in $I$.
- $f(c)$ has an absolute minimum on interval $I$ if $f(c)\le f(x)$ for all $x$ in $I$.
Theorem for $f_x$ and $f_y$
- If $f$ is continues on a closet interval $\lbrack a,b\rbrack$. Then $f$ reaches an absolute maximum value $f(c)$ and an absolute minimum value $f(d)$ at some numbers $c$ and $d$ in $\lbrack a,b\rbrack$.
- To find the absolute values of $f$ on $\lbrack a,b\rbrack$.
- Search for critical numbers in $(a,b)$.
- Identify the values of $f$ at said critical numbers and at endpoints.
- The largest of the values from step 2 is the absolute maximum value; the smallest of these values is the absolute minimum value.

Antiderivatives
- $F$ = an antiderivative of $f$ on interval $I$, if $F'(x)= f(x)$.
- The generic expression fo the antiderivative of $f$ on $I$ is $F(x)+C$.
