Question:

Below is a plot of the natural log of the activity coeffi cients ( ln γi) a binary liquid mixture of species a and b vs. mole fraction of species a (xa) at 300 K.

(a) What is the reference state for each species (Lewis-Randall or Henry’s)?

(b) Show that the Gibbs–Duhem equation is satisfi ed at a mole fraction xa = 0.6.

(c) Come up with an appropriate model for gE for this system and fi nd the values of the model parameters.

(d) Is it possible for species a and b to separate into two liquid phases? Explain.image text in transcribed
