2. Pure Component Properties

(Page 64-67 or 60-63 from PDF) What can be said about critical data?

• It can be calculated from group contribution

• It MUST be measured by experimental design

• It can be calculated by using Lydersen, Ambrose, Joback and Reid, Constantinou and Gani

(Page 66 or 62 from PDF) Build a program in Python that allows to calculate the critical data of m-xylene using Joback method. Its normal boiling point is 412.15 K.

• 622.22 K - 35.86 bar - 0.3755 m3/kmol

• 546.42 K - 58.0 bar - 0.6732 m3/kmol

• I couldn't do it

(Page 70 or 66 from PDF) Build a program in python that allows to calculate the normal boiling point of penthylcyclohexane using Joback method.

• Ok

• No

(Page 79 or 75 from PDF) What about vapor pressure?

• The vapor pressure can be obtained from integrating the Clausius Clapeyron equation

• The vapor pressure can be obtained DIRECTLY from Antoine. It doesn't depend on Clausius Clapeyron

(Page 90 or 86 from PDF) What about liquid density?

• It is not widely used

• It can be extracted from an EOS

• A good approximation is to treat liquid density as a function of pressure

• A good approximation is to treat liquid density as a function of temperature

(Page 90 or 86 from PDF) What about liquid density?

• The Rackett equation can be used, except in areas close to critical points

• the Rackett equation can be used anywhere

• A PPDS equation can be used
