The Binary System
Suppose that we add two components to
a container, seal the container, and
place it in a constant temperature bath.
The system can be represented by a
two-component mixture, a binary
system in the closed container at a

Equilibrium Summary
We assume thermodynamic equilibrium for a given
temperature and pressure.
This sets the equilibrium relationship between the
components in each phase.
The distribution between phase for each component will
be different, with one component enriched in the vapor
phase and the other in the liquid phase.
The next task is to determine what the equilibrium
relationships are and how to handle them

Azeotropes
The equilibrium curve is, in general, above the x = y line
when the more volatile component is plotted, in this case
ethanol.
The point where the liquid and vapor mole fractions
touch the x = y line indicates that they are equal this
is termed the azeotropic point or azeotrope.
The initially more volatile component is no longer the
more volatile component at the azeotrope.
For an ethanol-water mixture at P = 1 atm, this point is
xEtOH = yEtOH = 0.8943, which from Table 2-1 occurs at T
= 78.15oC.

Circumventing the Problem
For example,
example under a vacuum (P = 70 mmHg)
mmHg), no azeotrope
exists for the ethanol-water mixture. This is one reason that
vacuum distillation is often done for many separations.

Any point between the saturated liquid and saturated vapor lines is
a two- phase composition both vapor and liquid exist in

Thus, one can obtain a lot more information from the T vs. x,y plot

Answer
What are the boiling point temperatures of the pure
components, ethanol and water, from the T vs. x,y
plot?
If one has pure ethanol in the system, xEtOH = yEtOH =
1.0; thus, at xEtOH = 1.0, the boiling point of ethanol is
78.3oC at 1 atm from the plot.
If one has p
pure water in the system,

, xEtOH = yEtOH = 0.0
or xW = yW = 1.0 ; thus, at xEtOH = 0.0 the boiling point
of water is 100oC at 1 atm from the plot.

Explain what happens as one heats the system to 80oC
using the T vs. x,y plot.
By convention for a feed, designate the mole fraction as
zEtOH on the diagram at 75oC and indicate heating to
80oC.
What is the phase of this mixture at 75oC and what is

Additional Problem
Using the equilibrium data for ethanolwater at P =1 atm (Table 2-1 Wankat),
estimate the bubble point temperature and
composition of the 1st vapor bubble formed
for a feed mixture containing zEtOH = 0.508.
Estimate the dew point temperature and
composition of the last liquid drop.
Use only the data table, do not plot.
T vs x,y Azeotrope
The p
point where the saturated liquid
q
line and the saturated vapor
p line touch
is the azeotrope (x = y), which can be read directly from the T vs. x,y plot
at T = 78.15oC.
One can also see this minimum boiling point behavior more clearly in Figure
2-3, p. 16 in Wankat. The azeotrope is the point where the saturated liquid
line and the saturated vapor line touch.
Note that the equilibrium curves sweep up slightly past the azeotrope
before reaching the boiling point of pure ethanol since this is a minimum
boiling azeotrope.
