( 5 0 points ) Nitrogen gas is passed through an equimolar liquid mixture of benzene and toluene at 3 atm ( 2 2 8

(50 points) Nitrogen gas is passed through an equimolar liquid mixture of benzene and toluene at 3atm(2280mmHg) and 80C. The flowrate of nitrogen is 0.45molemin. The gas leaving the vessel is saturated with respect to all components of the liquid.
a)10 points. Draw and properly label a diagram of the process.
b)20 points. What is the composition of the gas leaving the vessel very soon after the start of the nitrogen flow (but after equilibrium is attained)?
c)5 points. What is the flowrate of benzene gas leaving the vessel very soon after the start of the nitrogen flow (but after equilibrium is attained).
d)5 points. At some point, the mole fractions of the benzene in the liquid will drop to xB=0.28. What is the gas composition leaving the vessel at that condition?
