Binary Vapor Liquid Equilibrium

A liquid mixture of acetic acid(1) and acetone (2) is an equilibrium with its vapor
at 373 K. The mole fraction of acetic acid in the liquid phase is 0.40. assuming
ideal gas and ideal solution conditions, determine:
a.
b.
c.
d.

The fugacity of the acetic acid

The pressure of the system
The vapor phase mole fraction of acetic acid
The fraction of the fluid that is in the vapor phase when the total mole
fraction of acetic acid in the entire system is 0.30.

Jawaban
Persamaan umum kesetimbangan uap-cair adalah
fx = f y

NB : x = fasa cair, y = fasa uap.

i.xi.Pisat = i.yi.P
Larutan ideal, i = 1, dan gas ideal, i = 1. Sehingga persamaan di atas menjadi
xi.Pisat = yi.P
Pisat dapat dicari dengan menggunakan persamaan Antoine
ln Pisat = A-B/(C+T)
Pisat = Exp{A-B/(C+T)}

P1sat = Exp{8.021 - 1936.01/(258.451+100)}

P1sat = 416.8261= 0.5485 atm

NB: 373 K = 100 OC

P2sat = Exp{7.6313 - 1566.69/(273.419+100)}

P2sat = 2727.543292 mmHg = 3.589 atm
a. fx1 = xi.Pisat = 0.4 * 0.5485 atm = 0.2194 atm
b. fx = fy
x1.P1sat = y1.P
x2.P2sat = y2.P

x1.P1sat + x2.P2sat = (y1+ y2) P
x1.P1sat +(1- x1).P2sat = (y1+ y2) P
P = x 1 . P 1 sat +(1x 1). P 2 sat

NB ; y1+ y2 = 1

P = 0.4 (0.5485)+(10.4 )(3.589)

P = 2.3728 atm
c. x1.P1sat = y1.P
y1 = x1.P1sat/P
y1 = 0.4(0.5485)/2.3728
y1 = 0.09246
