A quantity of methyl acetate is placed in an open, transparent, three-liter flask and boiled long enough to purge all air from the vapor space. The flask is then sealed and allowed to equilibrate at 30°C, at which temperature methyl acetate has a vapor pressure of 269 mm Hg. Visual inspection shows 10 mL of liquid methyl acetate present.(a) What is the pressure in the flask at equilibrium? Explain your reasoning.(b) What is the total mass (grams) of methyl acetate in the flask? What fraction is in the vapor phase atequilibrium?(c) The above answers would be different if the species in the vessel were ethyl acetate because methyl acetate and ethyl acetate have different vapor pressures. Give a rationale for that difference.

- Methanol (CH3OH) is produced in the reaction of carbon dioxide and hydrogen via the reaction and process given below: CO2+3H2→CH3OH+H2O The fresh feed to the process contains hydrogen, carbon dioxide, and 0.400 mol% inerts (I). The reactor effluent passes through a condenser that removes essentially all of the methanol and water formed and none of the reactants or inerts. The unreacted reactants and inerts are recycled to the reactor. To avoid buildup of the inerts in the system, a purge stream is withdrawn from the recycle. 100 mol/h of feed to the reactor (not the fresh feed to the process) contains 29.5 mol% CO2, 68.0 mol% H2, and 2.50 mol% inerts.
