Solubility equilibrium

To study the thermodynamics of solubility of naphthalene in diphenylamine
Introduction:
Phase equilibrium is a state of balance which rate of transfer of matter or heat from one phase to the other is equal to the rate of transfer in the reverse direction at equilibrium. The driving force for a phase change is the minimization of free energy and causing material or heat transfer are balanced at equilibrium. The equilibrium phase is always

X naphthalene = 0.6
0.6 = 7.802 x 10-3 mol / {7.802 x 10-3 mol + (Y/169.23 g mol-1)}
Y = 0.88g
Total amount of diphenylamine present in the mixture is 0.88g, since 0.33g of diphenylamine was added previously, hence
0.88g – 0.33g = 0.55g
The amount of diphenylamine added to the mixture is 0.55g in order to produce a 0.6 mole fraction of naphthalene in the mixture.
Xnaphthalene = 0.4
0.4 = 7.802 x 10-3 mol / {7.802 x 10-3 mol + (Y/169.23 g mol-1)}
Y= 1.98g
Total amount of diphenylamine present in the mixture is 1.98g, since 0.88g of diphenylamine was added previously, hence
1.98g – 0.88g = 1.10g
Therefore, the additional amount of diphenylamine required is 1.10g in order to produce a 0.4 mole fraction of naphthalene in the mixture. Xnaphthalene = 0.2
0.2 = 7.802 x 10-3 mol / {7.802 x 10-3 mol + (Y/169.23 g mol-1)}
