            From the results sheet, we obtain the bubble point temperature = 42.75411960C.

        1 .3 .4  Computation of Dew Point Temperature

        Problem statement
        Compute the dew point temperature at 1.5 bar of the hydrocarbon mixture, shown in
        Table 1.2, using the RK-Soavc property method.
