Question
Transcribed Image Text:Vapor liquid-liquid equilibria of compounds A and B are shown in the diagram below. Determine the phases
and compositions starting with a mixture of 11 grams of species A and 99 grams of species B.
a.) What phase(s) and composition(s) would be present at 100°C? Determine the temperature at which this
mixture would first condense/vaporize (determine which process is the proper one for this composition).
What composition should the condensate/vapor that formed (again specify which one) have?
b.) With the same starting composition, (11 grams of species A and 99 grams of species B at 100°C) cool the
mixture from 100°C to 90°C. What phase(s) and composition(s) would be present?
c.) Decrease the temperature further to 80°C. What phase(s) and composition(s) would be present?
d.) Cool the system to 60°C. What phase(s) and composition(s) would be present?
e.) From (d) at 60°C, add 550 g of species A to the mixture. What changes to the mixture occur, and what
phase(s) and composition(s) would be present?
f.) Now from (e), heat the system from 60°C back to the initial temperature of 100°C. What phase(s) and
composition(s) are present?
