A single-stage liquid/vapor separation for the benzene (1)/ethylbenzene(2) system must produce phases of the following equilibrium compositions.

Question:

A single-stage liquid/vapor separation for the benzene (1)/ethylbenzene(2) system must produce phases of the following equilibrium compositions. For one of these sets, determine the T and P in the separator. What additional information is needed to compute the relative amounts of liquid and vapor leaving the separator? Assume that Raoult's law applies.
(a) x1 = 0.35, y1 = 0.70.
(b) x1 = 0.35. y1 =0.725.
(c) x1 = 0.35, y1 = 0,75.
(d) x1 = 0.35. y1 = 0.775.
