Homework problem
due Friday

(a) Find the bubble point and dew point for a mixture that is 20 mol% n-butane, 60 mol% n- pentane, and 20 mol% n-hexane, at 300 kPa. (b) For this mixture, nd the composi&ons of the rst bubble formed and the last drop of liquid vaporized. Use a DePriester chart and the trial-and-error method.
