Question
Consider a closed vessel initially containing 1 mol of pure ethyl acetate at 70°C and 86 kPa. Imagine that pure ethanol is slowly added at constant temperature and pressure until the vessel contains 1 mol ethyl acetate and 9 mol ethanol. Describe the evolution of phases and phase compositions during this process. Comment on the practical feasibility of carrying out such process. What sort of device would be required? How would the total system volume change during this process? At what composition would the system volume reach its maximum volume?
