Question

Methyl Ethyl Ketone(1). Toluene (2) mixture is set at 50°C. The pressure varies from 12.30 kPa (saturation pressure of toluene) to 36.09 kPa (saturation pressure of methyl ethyl ketone). Assuming Margules model can represent the VLE behavior of this organic mixture, what is the value of A12? a. 0.167 b. 0.245 c. 0.198 d. 0.524

Step 1

Step 1: Start with the given Margules model equations: \[ln(\gamma_1) = x_2^2a_{12} + 2a_{21}x_1 - a_{12}x_1\] \[ln(\gamma_2) = x_1^2a_{21} + 2a_{12}x_2 - a_{21}x_2\] Show more…
