PRACTICAL NO. 2

For a system Methanol (1) / Methyl Acetate (2), the following equations provide a reasonable
correlation for the activity coefficients:

ln γ1 = Ax22 ln γ2 = Ax12 where A = 2.771-0.00523 T

In addition, the following Antoine equations provide Vapour pressures:

ln𝑃1𝑠𝑎𝑡=16.59158−3643.31𝑇−33.424

ln𝑃2𝑠𝑎𝑡=14.25326−2665.54𝑇−53.424

Where T is in Kelvin and the vapour pressure is in KPa. . Boiling Point of Methanol at
101.325 KPa is 64.7 0C and boiling Point of Methyl Acetate at 101.325 KPa is 56.9 0C.

a) At y = 0.5 for Methanol, find the value of x. Take T as 62 0C.

b) Using Modified Raoult’s Law generate VLE data for the system at 58 0C and 101.325
KPa.
