SOLUTION:
As can be seen from the graph, we illustrate the temperature of 30℃, by the red horizontal line
and the red vertical line is the mass fraction of B is 70% because mass of B is 0.7kg in total 1kg
in Q system
The region between two curves is the vapour-liquid phase whereas the upper curve is the vapour
region and the bottom curve is the liquid region.
When the temperature is 30℃, we can see in the diagram that system is in liquid phase.
𝑚𝑙𝑖𝑞𝑢𝑖𝑑 = 1 𝑘𝑔
In the liquid system at 30℃, we have the mass fraction of B is 70% and the mass fraction of A is
30%

4. Describe the process heating system Q1.
Heating system Q1 would cause the liquid – vapour mixture to vaporize, resulting in a vapour
phase of composition between pure A and pure B, depending on the temperature of the system.
By collecting the vapour and condensing it back to a liquid, we can separate the components of
the mixture.
We heat the system to the point c which is at approximately 45℃ , the bubble point temperature
will be reached and we can observe that:
- At that point, the composition between the two curves will start to separate into two
phases : liquid and vapour at the same time
We heat the system to the point d which is at 60℃, the dew point temperature will be reached and
we can observe that:
- The composition between the two curves will give a high percentage of B in the vapor
phase and a low percentage of A in the vapor phase ( the mass fraction of B is 70% and the mass
fraction of A is 30%).
We continue to heat the system to point e ( the same temperature as system Q) which is at 110℃,
we can observe that the percentage of B will start to decrease in the vapor phase due to the
vaporization of more liquid B at high temperatures.
After point e, both components are in the vapor phase ( the composition of 70% B and 30% A will
be retained, only phase changed.
