Consider a binary mixture composed of -hexane and
-octane; this Demonstration uses Henley and Seader's data to plot the enthalpy versus composition diagram at 101 kPa. The curves are the liquid (
, in blue) and vapor (
, in magenta) enthalpy versus the liquid (
) and vapor (
) mole fraction curves. Click either curve to place the locator there. Then the vapor-liquid and enthalpy data is displayed as text at the bottom and the tie line is plotted in red.
