Question: (a) For a liquid solution having a molar composition of ethyl acetate (A) of 80% and ethyl alcohol (E) of 20%, calculate the bubble-point temperature

(a) For a liquid solution having a molar composition of ethyl acetate (A) of 80% and ethyl alcohol (E) of 20%, calculate the bubble-point temperature at 101.3kPa and the composition of the corresponding vapor using (2-72) with vapor pressure data and the van Laar equation of Table 2.9 with AAE = 0.855, AEA = 0.753.

(b) Find the dew point of the mixture.

(c) Does the mixture form an azeotrope? If so, predict the temperature andcomposition.
