Binary Liquid Systems
A. Completely miscible binary liquids
When C = 2,
Intensive Variables: P, T, C1/C2
If T or P = k
F=3P
If T = k, P vs. C
If P = k, T vs. C

For each volatile component of an ideal mixture of
liquids at constant T
T=k
Pi = i Pi
PA = A PA
PB
P = (1B) PA + B PB
and
P B = B P B
Since, Ptot = Pi
PB = B PB
P = PA + PB
=A PA + B PB

PA = A PA
= (1B) PA + B PB
