Only professional chemical engineers, please answer!
Do it for methanol-benzene mixture, thanks!
I will thumbs up if the answer is right. :)
For one of the binary systems listed in Table 13.10, based on Eq. (13.19) and the Wilson equation, make the following calculations:
(a) BUBL T: P = 101.33 kPa, x1 = 0.3.
(b) DEW T: P = 101.33 kPa, y1 = 0.3.
(c) P, T - flash: P = 101.33 kPa, T = (Tbubble + Tdew), z1 = 0.3.
(a) If an azeotrope exists at P = 101.33 kPa, find 7az and xaz = yaz.

Parameters a12, a21, b12, and b21 have units of cal-mol-1, and V1 and V2 have units of cm3.mol-1.
