Question

Consider the mixture of hydrocarbons illustrated below. Assume that Raoult’s law is valid.

Component
Ethane
Mole fraction
A
B
0.05
817.08
4.402229
Propane
n-Butane
2-Methyl propane
0.10
1051.38
4.517190
0.40
1267.56
4.617679
0.45
1183.44
4.474013
In the above table, the coefficients A and B are for the Antoine equation shown below (with
these coefficients, Psat is given in bar and T is in K). Note: the form of the Antoine equation
given below is slightly different than what is in the textbook (Appendix B).
A
log psat
÷+B
T
Consider that the mixture is isothermally flash vaporized at 30 °C from a high pressure to 5
bar. Find the amounts and compositions of the vapor and liquid phases that would result.
