The mixture is not stable and forms two liquid phases. One of the phases has a composition of 10% component 1, while other phase has a composition of 75% of component 1.

Consider the figure that provides the molar Gibbs free energy of mixing as a function of composition for a binary mixture.



If the overall composition of the mixture is 30% of component 1, is the mixture stable? If not, what are estimates of the compositions of the liquid phases that are in equilibrium?


Incorrect. It is true that the liquid is not stable in one phase, but you have found incorrect compositions using the tangent line. Try again.
