Question: ( a ) Determine the state ( liquid / vapour ) of benzene at P = 5 bar and T = 1 2 0 C

(a) Determine the state (liquid/vapour) of benzene at P=5 bar and T=120C and P=0.5 bar
and T=120C.
(b) Estimate the difference in enthalpy between state bar, {:T=120C) and state
=0.5 bar, T120C) of benzene from the following data:
Latent heat of vaporization at normal boiling point (353.2K)=30.75kJmol;
Tc=562.10K;Pc=49.24 bar
Specific volume of liquid benzene may be assumed to be 9.010-5m3mol
log10P(mmHg)=6.88-1196.7t(oC)+219.16
Equation of state of the gas is given by Z=PVRT=1+BPRT where B=0.05Lgmol.
[1 bar =750.24mmHg]
Sketch the path followed for solving the problem on a P-v diagram.
