Question: An equimolar mixture will be fed into a distillation column at a flow rate of 5 0 0 0 kg / s . This mixture

An equimolar mixture will be fed into a distillation column at a flow rate of 5000 kg/s. This mixture consists of CCl4 and C5. The upper product obtained as a result of distillation contains 90% C5H12(90% mol C5H12,10% mol CCl4). The bottom product contains 95% CCl4. Find the upper and lower product flow rates in kmol/s.(Molar masses: CCl4=154 kg/kmol, C5H12=72 kg/kmol)
