Chapter 13, Problem 13.21P

The following is a rule of thumb: For a binary system in VLE at low pressure, the equilibrium vapor-phase mole fraction y1corresponding to an equimolar liquid mixture is approximate

y 1 = P 1 s a t P 1 s a t + P 2 s a t

where P i s a t is a pure-species vapor pressure. Clearly, this equation is valid if Raoult's law applies. Prove that it is also valid for VLE described by Eq. (13.19), with I n γ 1 = A x 2 2 and I n γ 2 = A x 1 2 .

Consider a mixture of carbon monoxide and water at 25°C:a. Does an azeotrope exist for this mixture at 25°C? If so, at what composition andpressure? If not, how do you know?b. If the total composition of the mixture is 10. mol% carbon monoxide, what will bethe pressure limits of VLE for this mixture at 25°C?   show all the calculation steps
A passive solar house was determined to lose heat to the outdoors at an average rate of 50,000 kJ/h during a typical 10-hour winter night. The house is to be maintained at 22°C at all times. Passive heating is accomplished by 50 glass containers each containing 20 L of water that is heated to 80°C during the day by absorbing solar energy. A 15-kW back-up electric resistance heater turns on whenever necessary to keep the house at 22°C. (a) How many hours does the electric heating system run during a typical winter night? (b) How many hours would the electric heater run during a typical winter night if the house did not have passive solar heating? For the density and specific heat of water at room temperature, use p = 1 kg/L and cp = 4.18 kJ/kg.°C
A well-insulated rigid tank contains 3 kg of a saturated liquid-vapor mixture of water at 200 kPa. Initially, three-quarters of the mass is in the liquid phase. An electric resistance heater placed in the tank is now turned on and kept on until all the liquid in the tank is vaporized. Determine the entropy change of the water during this process.
