Question

In this problem you will be calculating and plotting the saturation pressure of 4 components: n-

pentane, n-hexane, benzene, and ethanol using a variety of methods. Produce 4 graphs (one for

each component) where the vapor pressure is calculated from 350 - 400 K using the three

approaches below (3 curves per plot):

a. Antoine's equation (i.e., experimental data)

b. The Clausius-Clapeyron equation assuming the heat of vaporization is constant at

350 K

c. Using the Peng-Robinson equation of state.
