(50 points) Please answer parts A through D below!!
a.(5 points) Write the molecular formula for n-hexatriacontane. What are the TC,PC, and for n-hexane and n-hexatriacontane, according to values found online?
b.(10 points) Plot the Px diagram for n-hexane +n-hexatriacontane at 621.8K found in the table in the image below. What is the critical pressure?
c.(15 points) Compare calculation results from the PR EOS with the experimental data (as you plotted for part b). You can perform PT flash for n-hexane +7 mol% n-hexatriacontane] at 621.8K at the pressures used the table's experiment (i.e.,791 kPa, 1480 kPa, 2514 kPa, 3549 kPa, 4583 kPa, and 5500 kPa in the SI unit system). Use the default value, zero, for the binary interaction parameter (BIP) between the two components.
d.(20 points) In order to represent the critical point of this binary fluid system at 621.8 K more accurately, should the BIP be increased or decreased from the default value of zero? Demonstrate the effect of BIP on the two-phase envelope in order to support your answer.
