Question

The following data are for a binary solution of ethane (C₂H₆) and pentane (C₅H₁₂) at a certain temperature and pressure:

mole fraction of ethane	0.2	0.3	0.4	0.5	0.6	0.7	0.8
volume (in m³) per kmol of solution	0.119	0.116	0.112	0.109	0.107	0.107	0.110

Estimate;

the specific volumes of pure ethane and pure pentane, each in m³/kmol.
the partial molar volumes of ethane and pentane for an equimolar solution, each in m³/kmol.
