 7. A solution composed of 40 wt% ethanol (E), 30 wt%

7. A solution composed of 40 wt% ethanol (E), 30 wt% methanol (M) and water (W) is fed at the rate of 1450 kg/hr into a separator that produced one stream at the rate of 150 kg/hr with the composition of 30 wt% ethanol, 15 wt% methanol and water. In addition there is a second stream of an unknown composition. Calculate the composition of the three compounds in the unknown stream (in wt%) and its total flowrate in kg/hr
