THERMODYNAMICS

Create a Pxy (T = 343 K) diagram for a binary mixture of cyclohexane and n-hexane. Assume that the liquid forms an ideal solution. Show iterations, if applicable.

Expert Solution

Antoine constants : Cyclohexane , log psat(mm Hg)= 6.85146-1206.46/(t+223.136), t in deg.c

n- hexane log psat(mm Hg)= 7.01051- 1246.33/(t+232.988), t in deg.c

at 343K, for cyclohexane , log psat(mm Hg)= 6.85146- 1206.46/(343-273+223.136) , Psat= 544.2 mm Hg

at 343 K= 343-373= 70 deg.c, for n-hexane : log psat(mm Hg)= 7.01051- 1246.33/(70+232.988), Psat= 785.252 mm Hg

hence n- hexane is more volatile than cyclohexane. Hence its vapor pressure is designated as P1sat. vapor pressure of cyclohexane is designated as P2sat.

since Raoult's law is obeyed, y1P= x1P1sat and y2P= x2P2sat.

where y1, y2 are mole fractions of n-hexane and cyclohexane in the vapor phase, P is total pressure, x1, x2 are mole fraction of n-hexane and cyclohexane in the liquid phase.

addition of the above equations gives P= x1P1sat+ x2P2sat, x1= (1-x2)

assume some x1 ( lies between 0 and 1). Calculate P for each x from above equation. Once P is calculated, y1= x1P1sat/P can be calculated. The calculations are tabulated below.

the P,x, y data generated is plotted and shown below.

A mixture of 85% n-heptane, remaining cyclohexane gas at 1 bar and 308 K is compressed to a final state at 1443.47 K and 64.475 bar. Estimate the enthalpy and entropy changes for the process using residual properties and by the Lee/Kessler correlations. In its initial state, the system may be assumed an ideal gas.

A student is studying a temperature-composition diagram of a binary mixture of two pure substances, Kimium and Kallosium, at 1 atm. The molar mass of Kimium and Kallosium are 80 kg/kmol and 100 kg/kmol respectively. The substances are completely miscible, without any azeotrope at 1 atm. The student has obtained the following data from the diagram. Case Mole % of Kimium Bubble point temperature (degrees C) Dew Point temperature (degrees C) 1 25 100 106 2 45 93 100 a)...

A binary mixture of benzene and toluene will be separated by continuous distillation. The mixture consists of 20% mol of benzene and 80% mol of toluene at the bubble point of 91ºC. The binary mixture is available at 100 mol h-1 and the separation should deliver a distillate product that has a concentration of 90% mol of benzene and that contains half of the benzene in the feed stream. a) Plot the equilibrium line for benzene. b) Determine the minimum...
