Question:
Using the enthalpy'concentration diagram of Figure, determine the following for a mixture of n-hexane (H) and n-octane (0) at I atm:
(a) The temperature and compositions of equilibrium liquid and vapor resulting from adiabatic mixing of 950 lb/h of a mixture of 30 mol% H in O at l8oF with 1,125 Ib/h of a mixture of 80 mol% H in O at 24oF.
(b) The energy required to partially condense, by cooling, a mixture of 60 mol% H in O from an initial temperature of 26oF to 200oF. What are the compositions and amounts of the resulting vapor and liquid phases per pound-mole of original mixture?
(c) If the equilibrium vapor from part (b) is further cooled to 180oF, determine the compositions and relative amounts of the resulting vapor andliquid.
