Chapter 6, Problem 6.17P
Air at 90°C and 1.00 atm (absolute) contains 10.0 mole% water. A continuous stream of this air enters a compressor—condenser, in which the temperature is lowered to 15.6°C and the pressure is raised to 3.00 atm. The air leaving the condenser is then heated isobarically to 100°C. Calculate the fraction of water that is condensed from the air, the relative humidity of the air at 100°C, and the ratio (m3 outlet air at 100°C)/(m3 feed air) at 90°C.

A gas mixture contains 10.0 mole% H 2O(v) and 90.0 mole% N 2. The gas temperature and absolute pressure at the start of each of the three parts of this problem are 50°C and 500 mm Hg. Ideal-gas behavior may be assumed in every part of this problem.(a) If some of the gas mixture is put in a cylinder and slowly cooled at constant pressure, at what temperature would the first drop of liquid form?(b) If a 30.0-liter flask is filled with some of the gas mixture and sealed and 70% of the water vapor in the flask is condensed, what volume (cm 3 ) would be occupied by the liquid water? What would be the system temperature?(c) If the gas mixture is stored in a rigid-walled cylinder and a low-pressure weather front moves in and the barometric (atmospheric) pressure drops, which of the following would change: (i) the gas density, (ii) the absolute pressure of the gas, (iii) the partial pressure of water in the gas, (iv)the gauge pressure of the gas, (v) the mole fraction of water in the gas, (vi)…
Calculate the following:
(a) The bubble-point temperature of an equimolar mixture of liquid n-hexane and n-heptane at 1.0 atm and the composition (mole fractions) of the vapor in equilibrium with this mixture.
(b) The dew-point temperature of a gas mixture with a molar composition of 30% n-hexane, 30% n-heptane, and 40% air at 1 atm and the composition (mole fractions) of the liquid in equilibrium with this mixture.
The table below shows temperature/composition data collected for a mixture of methylbenzene (M) and octane (O) at 1 atm. Recall that x stands for the mole fraction in the liquid and y stands for the mole fraction in the vapor in equilibrium. The boiling points for methylbenzene (M) and octane (O) are 110.60C and 125.60C, respectively. Construct the phase diagram with Temperature vs. xM. What is the composition of the vapor in equilibrium with the liquid of composition (a) xM = 0.250 and (b) xO = 0.250.

Explain your reasoning.(b) What is the total mass (grams) of methyl acetate in the flask?
