2.10 The separation of isopentane from n-pentane by distillation is difficult (approximately 100 trays are required), but is commonly practiced in industry. Using the extended Antoine vapor pressure equation, (2-39), with the constants below and in conjunction with Raoult's law, calculate relative volatilities for the isopentane/ n-pentane system and compare the values on a plot with the following smoothed experimental values [J. Chem. Eng. Data, 8, 504 (1963)]: k₁ Temperature, F 125 150 175 200 225 250 What do you conclude about the applicability of Raoult's law in this temperature range for this binary system? Vapor pressure constants for (2-39) with vapor pressure in kPa and Tin K are k₂ k3 k4, k5, k6 iC5 13.6106 -2,345.09 diC5,nCs 1.26 1.23 1.21 1.18 1.16 1.14 -40.2128 0 nC5 13.9778 -2,554.60 -36.2529 0
