Question
5. Consider a mixture of 2 moles of 1-propanol and 8 moles of water at 1 atm (760 mmHg)
(a) What would be the composition (mole fractions) of the liquid and gas phases if the system is maintained in equilibrium at 92.35 °C?
(b) ) How many moles would be in each phase?
Data on the system 1-propanol and water is presented in Figure 5 and Table VIII of: Murti, P., & Van Winkle, M. (1958).
