Question

9 At 304 K the v hyl acetate CHCOOCt i 9.173 akm and tive v vapor pressure of pure et viacetate (CLCOOCils) is 0.402 aim. Mixing 468e of ethyt acetate MM-SN.11gmsol wits 45.8 of methyl acetate (MN ideal sust show work to receive credit) (MM-74.0gmol wives a solutios t hat is neary (a) Calculate the mole fraction of ethyi acetate in the solution XEi-acetate in solution (b) Calculate the total vapor pressure of the solution at 304 K Total vapor pressure solution atm (c) Calculate the mole fraction of methyl acetate in the vapor in equilibrium with the solution X'Me-acetate in vapor Page 5 of 6

Explanation / Answer

9) a) No of mol of ethyl acetate = w/M

           = 46.8/88.1 = 0.53 mol

    No of mol of methyl acetate = w/M

   = 45.8/74.08 = 0.618 mol

molefraction of ethyl acetate = nethyl acetate / ntotal

              = 0.53/(0.53+0.618)

   = 0.462

molefraction of methyl acetate = 1-0.462 = 0.538

    b) Ptotal = pethyl acetate + pmethyl acetate

              = 0.462*0.173 + 0.538*0.402

       = 0.296 atm

   c) molefraction of ethyl acetate = nethyl acetate / ntotal

              = 0.53/(0.53+0.618)

   = 0.462
