Consider a mixture of 40% (mole) toluene (T) and 60% n-butanol (B) at 101.3 kPa. The mixture can be assumed to form an ideal gas

Consider a mixture of 40% (mole) toluene (T) and 60% n-butanol (B) at 101.3 kPa. The mixture can be assumed to form an ideal gas mixture and a non- ideal liquid mixture. The K-values can be calculated from modified Raoults law. The activity coefficients are given by the van Laar equation:

(Ans: Tdew= 382.57K) b) If this mixture is flashed midway between the bubble and dew points and 101.3kPa, what fraction is vaporized (V/F), and what are the phase compositions? ( Ans: xT=0.3 )
