Partial Equilibrium Vaporization Calculation and its Relation to Separation Processes
A liquid mixture of 50 mol % n-pentane and 50 mol % n-heptane, initially at a low temperature, is partially vaporized by heating at a constant pressure of 1.013 bar (1 atm). Find the equilibrium vapor and liquid compositions and the equilibrium temperature as a function of the fraction that is vaporized.
