Question: A gas mixture containing 85.0 mole% N2 and the balance n-hexane flows through a pipe at a rate of 100.0m 3 fh, the pressure is

A gas mixture containing 85.0 mole% N2 and the balance n-hexane flows through a pipe at a rate of

100.0m3fh, the pressure is 2.00 atm absolute and the temperature is 100°C.

(a) What is the molar flow rate of the gas in k mol/h?

(b) Is the gas saturated? If not, to what temperature (°C) would it have to be cooled at constant pressure in order to begin condensing hexane?

(c) To what temperature (°C) would the gas have to be cooled at constant pressure in order to condense 80% of the hexane?
