. A 60 kmol/h liquid solution which is at 25 ^oC, contains 32 mol percent ethylene glycol and 68 mol percent water. This solution will be flash- distilled at 1.013 bar constant pressure. For a fractional vaporization of 0.50, calculate:

a) The compositions of top and bottom products,

b) The flash temperature,

c) The percentage recovery of ethylene glycol.

(Hint: Draw t-xy and x-y diagrams of the water- ethylene glycol system using the data table below. x refers to mole fraction of water in liquid and y refers to mole fraction of water in vapor.)
