Step 1 1 of 8

(a)

At 1 atm, the normal boiling point of benzene is:

(Tbp )B = 80.1°C
​ ​

At 1 atm, the normal boiling point of chloroform is:

(Tbp )C = 61°C
​ ​

The figure in Part c) shows the skect

Step 2 2 of 8

(b)

The normal boiling point for component is given in Table B.1.

(Tbp )B = 80.1°C
​ ​

At 1 atm, the normal boiling point of chloroform is:

(Tbp )C = 61°C

(c)

Step 4 4 of 8

(d)

Suppose a liquid solution follows Raoult’s law for all components and contains species with known mole fractions.

If the mixture is heated at a constant pressure P to its bubble-point temperature Tbp the further addition of a slight ​

amount of heat will lead to the formation of a vapor phase.

The vapor is in equilibrium with the liquid and the vapor follows the ideal-gas equation of state, the partial
pressures of the components are given by Raoult’s law.

Step 6 6 of 8

Tbp = 71°C ybp = 0.58

​ ​

ΔT
Error = ⋅ 100%
T(real)
​

71 − 75.3
Error = ⋅ 100%
75.3
​

Error = −5.7 % error in Tbp

Step 7 7 of 8

Raoult’s law give poor estimates for this system because benzene and chloroform are not structurally similar
compounds.

Result 8 of 8

(a) (Tbp )B ​ ​ = 80.1°C , (Tbp )C = 61°C

​ ​

(b) (Tbp )B ​ ​ = 80.1°C , (Tbp )C = 61°C

(c) See the explanation.

(d) See the explanation.

(e) See the explanation.
