A production facility heats various equipment using a network of heated air and water vapor lines. A boiler produces a 195.0 mol/hr stream consisting of 0.590 mol fraction of water and 0.410 mol fraction of air at 131.0°C and 5200.0 mmHg. The air and water vapor cool as the gases move away from the boiler, and steam traps collect and remove condensed water from the lines while the pressure remains constant.

a) If a total of 65.6 mol/hr of condensed water is removed from the air and vapor lines, what is the composition of the air and vapor mixture leaving the steam lines?

b) Use the Antoine equation for water valid between 60°C and 150ºC to find the temperature of the air and vapor mixture leaving the heating lines.
