Chapter 10.7, Problem 21P

(A)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

To produce the xy diagram for a binary mixture where P1satP2sat=2

Concept introduction:

The higher value of the relative volatility means that it is easier to separate the components. The relative volatility (α) from Raoult’s law is given by,

α1,2=K1K2=P1satP2sat

Here, K-factor for component 1 and 2 is K1andK2 respectively.

(B)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

To produce the xy diagram for a binary mixture where P1satP2sat=4

Concept introduction:

The higher value of the relative volatility means that it is easier to separate the components. The relative volatility (α) from Raoult’s law is given by,

α1,2=K1K2=P1satP2sat

Here, K-factor for component 1 and 2 is K1andK2 respectively.
