State all assumptions for the below K-value expression to be valid. =P Kea (2 marks) b) Separation process is important in a chemical plant for purification of desired products. Consider a single-stage liquid-vapor separation system for benzene(1) and toluene(2) operates at atmospheric pressure. Assume the validity of Raoult’s law, i) By using K-value correlation, determine the bubble point temperature if an equimolar mixture of benzene and toluene is fed to the vessel. [The range of temperature is between 363.15 K and 367.15 K] (10 marks) ji) Determine the compositions of benzene and toluene in both liquid and vapor phases at temperature of 100°C. (8 marks) QUESTION 2 (P01, PO2, CO2, C2, C4) a) Partial molar enthalpy (J/mol) of species 1 and 2 for a binary liquid mixture at T and P are represented by Hi, = 220 + 60x, -150x? + 80x? i, =130-30x? + 80x? i) Show that these expressions satisfy the Gibbs/Duhem equation at constant T and P. (4 marks) ii) Find expression for molar enthalpy of the binary liquid mixture at T and P. [Hint: Use summabilty relation for partial properties] (3 marks) b) Fugacity coefficient of pure species in gas phase is determined from generalized virial- coefficient correlation as given by: (© Hak Cipta Universiti Teknologl MARA CONFIDENTIALCONFIDENTIAL 3 EHIJUN 2013/CPES53 aon] Byer +e) where 8° = 0.083 - 9472 0.172 B'=0.139-21 0.139-—37 For species in liquid phase, the fugacity is obtained by using the following equation: Determine the fugacity and fugacity coefficient for cyclopentane at 383.15 K and pressure of 2 bar and 7 bar. The saturation pressure of cyclopentane at 383.15 K is 5.267 bar. (13 marks) QUESTION 3 (P01, PO2, CO3, C4, C6) a) For an ideal gas reaction, equilibrium constant is related to composition by the following ‘equation: i aa pai "=|—| K ny, (5) ') If temperature of the reaction is constant, conclude the effect of increasing pressure on direction of reaction, extent of reaction and composition. Consider the sign of total stoichiometric number in your answer.
