![### Problem Statement
**a.** A humid air stream at 50°C and 1.5 bar has a relative humidity of 60%. What is the dew point of this stream?
### Antoine Equation for Water (P in bar, T in °C)
\[
\ln(100 \cdot P) = 16.3872 - \frac{3885.70}{T + 230.170}
\]
### Relative Humidity
\[
h_r = \frac{P_i}{P_i^*} \times 100\%
\]
---
**b.** Estimate the heat of vaporization of ethanol at 75°C using the Clapeyron Equation.
### Given:
\[
P^{\text{sat}} (\text{kPa}) = \exp \left( 16.8958 - \frac{3795.17}{T(K) - 42.23} \right) \quad \text{(Antoine Eqn.)}
\]
\[
\frac{dP^{\text{sat}}}{dT} = \frac{\Delta H_{\text{vap}}}{T \Delta V_{\text{vap}}} \quad \text{(Clapeyron Equation)}
\]
\[
\Delta V_{\text{vap}} = 0.691 \, \frac{m^3}{kg}
