Question: Given the following experimental VLE data for methanol ( 1 ) / 1 , 2 - dichloroethane ( 2 ) at 5 0 C .

Given the following experimental VLE data for methanol(1)/1,2-dichloroethane(2) at 50C...
a) Derive and plot ln1,ln2 and GEx1x2RT as a function of x1 using the experimental data.
b) Use the van Laar equation to determine the two coefficients.
c) Plot the P-x,y behavior at 50C based on your van Laar model, comparing it to the
experimental VLE data.
d) Calculate the residuals for GERTln(12) to see if your model has good consistency
with the experimental data.
As before, add only the most key details & plots to your main report and add any relevant
datasheets to an Appendix at the end of your report.
Hint: You may need to use Thermosolver to calculate the saturation pressure of a given species!
