Question: Air at 9 0 . 0 deg C and 1 . 0 atm ( absolute ) contains 7 . 0 mole % water. A

Air at 90.0\deg C and 1.0 atm (absolute) contains 7.0 mole% water. A continuous stream of this air enters a compressorcondenser, in which the temperature is lowered to 18.6\deg C and the pressure is raised to 3.10 atm. The air leaving the condenser is then heated isobarically to 100.0\deg C. Calculate the fraction of water that is condensed from the air, the relative humidity of the outlet air at 100.0\deg C, and the ratio (m3 outlet air at 100.0\deg C)/(m3 feed air) at 90.0\deg C.
