What is the dew point temperature of a vapor mixture of 50 mol % of n-pentane and 50 mol
% of n-butane at 200 psia? At what temperature is the vapor mixture completely condensed if
the pressure is maintained constant at 200 psia?

A vessel initially containing propane at 30oC is connected to a nitrogen cylinder, and the
pressure is increased to 300 psia. Assuming that the nitrogen is insoluble in liquid propane,
what is the mol fraction of propane in the vapor phase? List all assumptions. The following
data are available: the vapor pressure of propane at 30oC is 10.5 atm.

(7)1 One mol of n-butane and 1 mol of n-pentane are charged into a container. The container
is heated to 180oF where the pressure read 100 psia. Determine the quantities and
compositions of the phases in the container. Use the K values from Table 1.

(8)1 For the design of an absorption refrigeration system using propane as the working fluid,
we require equilibrium data for mixtures of propane and a nonvolatile hydrocarbon solvent.
Ideal liquid solutions are expected and we need propane partial pressure (total pressure, P)
vs. mol fraction of propane in the liquid solution, xp. Using Matlab prepare a plot of P vs. xp
for a temperature of 200oF. Cover the range 0.1 < xp 0.5. The plot must have a title Plotted
by your name.
