2. A distillation column with two feeds is separating ethanol and water at 1atm. Feed 1 is a saturated liquid and is 0.42 ethanol (mol fraction) Feed 2 is 100kmol/h and 0.18 ethanol and has 30mol% vapor and 70% liquid. L/D=1/2 and D=80kmol/h. Finally xD=0.66 and xB=0.04. a. Find the flow rate of the feed 1 and B. b Find the mid-section L' and V'. c. Find the total number of stages and where the feeds are located. x0.3273y0.58260.0190.39650.1700.61220.07210.51980.38910.65990.09660.57320.43750.68410.12380.67630.47040.73850.16610.74720.50890.89430.23370.89430.54450.78150.26080.55800.8943
