7.54    3Consider a binary mixture of species a and species b at 300 K and 1 bar. The vapor pressure of pure a at 300 K is 80 kPa. A plot of the activity coefficient of species a vs. mole fraction of species a is shown below. Based on this plot,
(a)    Specify the reference state for species a (Lewis-Randall or Henry’s). Explain.
(b)    What is the value of fa?
(c)Â Â Â Â What is the value of Ha?
(d)   As best as you can, come up with the Margules parameter A in the two-suffix Margules equation

(e)    Consider a liquid mixture of 2 moles of a and 3 moles of b at 300 K and 1 bar. At equilibrium, what is the mole fraction of a in the vapor phase, ya?
(f)     For the mixture above, determine gb based on a Lewis/Randall reference state.
