    Problem Set

    1. An engineer is seeking your advice on which EOS he should use to model various hydrocarbon mixtures he is dealing with. He has access to a program that provides him with several options for different cubic EOS. He presents you with the following list:
    • A sweet natural gas from Nigeria
    • A sour natural gas (high CO2, H2S contents)
    • Flue gas
    1. Which EOS would you recommend him to use for each of these cases?
