Answer to Question 1

(a) moles ethanol = 95.0/46.0 = 2.07
moles water = 5.0/18.0 = 0.28
mole fraction of ethanol = 2.07/(2.07 + 0.28) = 0.88
mole fraction water = 0.12
(b) methanol: 0.449; ethanol: 0.312; propanol: 0.239



Answer to Question 2

26 mL of azeotrope would distill, followed by water. Therefore,
1: 78
2: 78
3: 78-100
4: 100
5: 100

Although the Roman numeral for the number 4 has always been taught to have been "IV," according to historians, the ancient Romans probably used "IIII" most of the time. This is partially backed up by the fact that early grandfather clocks displayed IIII for the number 4 instead of IV. Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.
