Question: b . Methanol ( 1 ) and acetone ( 2 ) form an azeotrope at 7 6 0 Torr with x 1 = 0 .

b. Methanol (1) and acetone (2) form an azeotrope at 760 Torr with x1=0.2,T=
55.70C. Evaluate the parameters in the van Laar equation. Estimate the liquid
composition and the pressure if the liquid phase is in equilibrium with a vapor
composed of 75mol% acetone at 25C. You may assume that the vapor phase is
ideal.
c. You have an ideal ternary system composed of acetone (1), acetonitrile (2), and
nitromethane (3). Calculate the pressure and vapor phase composition when T=
80C and x?={x1=0.3,x2=0.3}. Also calculate the pressure and liquid phase
composition when T=70C and y?={y1=0.5,y2=0.3}.
