Question

Transcribed Image Text:**Bubble Point Temperature (P and x<sub>i</sub> are known):**
1. **Estimate T.**
*Note: When Raoult’s law is applicable, select a temperature between (T<sub>i</sub><sup>sat</sup>)<sub>min</sub> and (T<sub>i</sub><sup>sat</sup>)<sub>max</sub>.*
2. **Rewrite Equation 10 (P = Σ x<sub>i</sub>P<sub>i</sub><sup>vap</sup>)** as a function of T using Antoine Equations and calculate P<sub>calc</sub>.
3. **Compare P<sub>calc</sub> with the specified P.** If P<sub>calc</sub> > P, assume T is too high; if P<sub>calc</sub> < P, assume T is too low. When the calculated pressure matches the specified pressure, determine vapor pressures of pure components from Antoine equations.
4. **Mole fractions in the vapor phase are calculated** from Equation 5 (y<sub>i</sub>P = x<sub>i</sub>P<sub>i</sub><sup>vap</sup>).

**Example 3:**
Estimate the bubble point temperature of a liquid mixture consisting of 50% n-pentane (1), 45% n-hexane (2), and 5% n-heptane (3) at 0.8 bar. Also calculate the composition of the first bubble of vapor.
