(g) Benzene and toluene are both non-polar and similar in shape and
size. Therefore one would expect little chemical interaction
between the components. The temperature is high enough and
pressure low enough to expect ideal behavior.

V is obviously linear in z1:
For a given pressure, z1 ranges from the liquid composition at the bubble
point to the vapor composition at the dew point. Material balance:
Since for Raoult’s law P is linear in x, at the specified P, x1 must be 0.5:

10.4 Each part of this problem is exactly like Problem 10.3, and is worked in
exactly the same way. All that is involved is a change of numbers. In
fact, the Mathcad solution for Problem 10.3 can be converted into the
solution for any part of this problem simply by changing one number, the
temperature.

10.8 To increase the relative amount of benzene in the vapor phase, the
temperature and pressure of the process must be lowered. For parts (c)
and (d), the process must be operated under vacuum conditions. The
temperatures are well within the bounds of typical steam and cooling water
temperatures.

decreases, the mole fraction of benzene in both phases increases and the
the mole fraction of ethylbenzene in both phases decreases.
