Topic: Vapor-liquid equilibrium (VLE), Solution Thermodynamics & Chemical Reaction Equilibria A process for ethanol synthesis has been developed and the ethylene hydration operating conditions have been optimized in order to reduce production costs (Ayaou et al., 2019). Ethanol is manufactured by reacting ethylene with steam at 150 C (423.15 K). The reaction takes place in a gas phase and the formation of the ethanol is an exothermic process and assume as ideal gases. C2H4 (g) +H206) C2H50Hg) Your classmate claims that the equilibrium constant decreases as the temperature decreases. Evaluate the effect of reducing the temperature to 100 C whether this observation make sense. Support your answer with the necessary calculations.
