At 50°c, 1.2 bar, the system n-pentane (1), n-hexane (2), and n-heptane (3) exists in vapor-liquid equilibrium. the mole fractions of the two phases are x1=0.6, x2=0.2, and x3=0.2 in the liquid, and y1=0.87, y2=0.1, and y3=0.03 in the vapor. the system contains an equal number of total moles of vapor and total moles of liquid.

a) calculate the fugacity and the fugacity coefficient of each component in the vapor. justify any assumptions that you make.
b) again justifying any assumptions that you make, determine the activity coefficients (lewis reference state) for each species in the liquid.
c) as accurately as you can (given the data available), determine the vapor pressures of the three species at 50°c.
d) to what pressure would it be necessary to compress this mixture to condense all of the vapor?

A2-m rigid tank initially contains saturated water vapor at 100 kpa. the tank is connected to a supply line through a valve. steam is flowing in the supply line at 600 kpa and 300 c. the valve is opened, and steam is allowed to enter the tank until the pressure in the tank reaches the line pressure, at which point the valve is closed. a thermometer placed in the tank indicates that the temperature at the final state is 200°c. determine (a) the mass of steam that has entered the tank (b) the amount of heat transfer.
