The boiling point for T is 110.6 ° C and for 0 is 125.6 ° C. Draw a temperature / composition chart for the mixture. What is the composition of vapor in equilibrium with the liquid with the composition (a) x, = 0.250 and (b) x, = 0.250?

3) The following temperature/composition data were obtained for a mixture of octane
(0) and methylbenzene (M) at 1.00 atm, where x is the mole fraction in the liquid and
y the mole fraction in the vapour at equilibrium.
