Question: For the system n - pentane ( 1 ) - n - heptane ( 2 ) , the vapour pressures are given by Page 2

For the system n-pentane (1)-n-heptane (2), the vapour pressures are given by
Page 2 of 4
02000 CHT202052102
the Antoine equation lnPs(kPa)=A-BT(K)+C
The constants are given as
\table[[Component,A,B,C],[n-pentane,13.8183,2477.07,40.00],[n-heptane,13.8587,2911.32,56.56]]
Assuming that the solution formed is ideal, calculate:
(i) The composition of the liquid and vapour in equilibrium at 95kPa and 336.2K
(ii) The composition of the vapour in equilibrium with a liquid containing 34%(mol) pentane if the equilibrium temperature is 344.4K at pressure P=95kPa.
(iii) The total pressure and the vapour composition in equilibrium with a liquid of composition x1=0.44 at temperature T=333.2K.
 For the system n-pentane (1)-n-heptane (2), the vapour pressures are given
