Pressure-temperature phase diagram for H₂O.
Intersection of the dashed horizontal line at 1 atm pressure with
the solid-liquid phase boundary (point 2) corresponds to the
melting point at this pressure (T=0°C). Similarly, point 3, the
intersection with the liquid-vapor boundary, represents the boiling
point (T = 100°C).
Why do you think psychrometric properties are based on per kilogram of dry air NOT per kilogram of water vapor.

- 1) A beaker with 10 cm in height is filled with liquid solvent n-hexane up to a level2 cm below the top (mouth) of the beaker at 25°C and 1 bar. With a fan, dry air at 25°C and 1 bar is blown gently across the mouth of the beaker, so that the hexane vapor transferred through the air and n-hexane gas-vapor mixture by diffusion. Hexane concentration at the mouth of the beaker is negligible. Assume that air does not dissolve in liquid hexane, and the liquid height in the beaker is constant within observation period, hence the system is in steady-state. Molecular diffusivity of n-hexane in air is DAB -2x10 m²/s at 25 °C and 1 bar, and vapor pressure of n-hexane is pa°-152 mmHg at 25 °C. a) Draw a schematic picture of the mass transfer in the beaker. b) Discuss the type of mass transfer in the gas-vapor mixture. c) Using the equation dyA N=-cD 4 + y , (N , + N,) + y, (N, +N, d z Derive the molar flux equation for the condition given, showing every step of integration. d) Calculate the total…arrow_forwardPick the right combination of TRUE statements?
