points A distillation column with a total condenser and partial reboiler is separating acetone the more volatile component from ethanol at atmosphere. As pictured, there are two feeds with flow rates and Feed has and is a saturated liquid. Feed has and is a superheated vapor where approximately mole of liquid will vaporize on the feed stage for each moles of feed. We desire and Rmin. Use Feed to determine Rmin. Constant molar overflow CMO is valid. How many stages are needed to achieve this separation and what is the optimal feed stage for Feed
