Using the data for the azeotropic mixture, calculate the values of A12 and A21 for the 2-parameter Margules equation.

A pair of compounds identified as 1 and 2 have the following properties:

This pair of compounds forms an azeotrope at 350 K and P = 8.5 bar, with x1 = y1 = 0.31.




Calculate the activity coefficients from experimental data:



Apply the 2-parameter Margules equations to solve for A12 and A21. Eq. 1:



Solve system of equations:

Eq. 1:

0.5306=0.1809A_12+0.295A_21

Eq. 2:

[0.0607=-1.284A_21+1.38A_12 ]*0.295/1.284

0.01399=-0.295A_21+0.318A_12

Summation of both equations:

0.5446=0.4989A_12

A_12=1.092

0.5306=0.1809(1.092)+0.295A_21

A_21=1.12
