A gas-vapor mixture consisting of benzene and N2 at a total pressure of 800 mm Hg and 45°C has a % saturation of 65%. (a) What is the dewpoint and % relative saturation of the gas mixture (b) If the mixture is heated to 700°C, what is its relative saturation and dew point with total pressure maintained at 800 mmHg (c) Up to what pressure can the mixture be compressed without condensing any of the benzene if the temperature is kept at 45°C?
