Question 6.3: Calculate the enthalpy and entropy of saturated isobutane va...

Calculate the enthalpy and entropy of saturated isobutane vapor at 360 K from the following information:

1. Table 6.1 gives compressibility-factor data (values of Z) for isobutane vapor.

2. The vapor pressure of isobutane at 360 K is 15.41 bar.

3. Set H_0^{\prime g}=18,115.0  J \cdot mol ^{-1} \text { and } S_0^{\prime g}=295.976  J \cdot mol ^{-1} \cdot K ^{-1} for the reference state at 300 K and 1 bar. [These values are in accord with the bases adopted by R. D. Goodwin and W. M. Haynes, Nat. Bur. Stand. (U.S.), Tech. Note 1051, 1982.]

4. The ideal-gas-state heat capacity of isobutane vapor at temperatures of interest is:

C_P^{\prime g} / R=1.7765+33.037 \times 10^{-3}  T \quad(T K )
