Question

A binary mixture of mole fraction z1z_1 is flashed to conditions T and P. For one of the following, determine the equilibrium mole fractions x1x_1 and y1y_1 of the liquid and vapor phases formed, the molar fraction V\mathcal{V} of the vapor formed, and the fractional recovery R\mathcal{R} of species 1 in the vapor phase (defined as the ratio for species 1 of moles in the vapor to moles in the feed). Assume that Raoult’s law applies. (a) Acetone(1)/acetonitrile(2), z1z_1 = 0.75, T = 340 K, P = 115 kPa. (b) Benzene(1)/ethylbenzene(2), z1=0.50,z_1 = 0.50, T=100C,T = 100^\circ C, P = 0.75(atm). (c) Ethanol(1)/1-propanol(2), z1z_1 = 0.25, T = 360 K, P = 0.80(atm).  (d) 1-Chlorobutane(1)/chlorobenzene(2), z1z_1 = 0.50, T=125C,T = 125^\circ C, P = 1.75 bar
