Question: ( 1 0 pts ) A binary system of n - Hexane and n - Octane is introduced in a flash operation. ( a )

(10 pts) A binary system of n-Hexane and n-Octane is introduced in a flash operation.
(a) determine the the q-line equation, if 40mol% of feed is n-Hexane. Assume 60mol% of feed is aimed to be vaporized in flash at atmospheric pressure.
(b) It is known that q-line intersects equilibrium curve when the liquid fraction of n-hexane is 0.192. Then what is the corresponding fraction of n-hexane in gas phase at equilibrium?
