Answer required urgently .2 A continuous fractionating column is to be designedAnswer required urgently

.2 A continuous fractionating column is to be designed to separate 0.029kmol/s of a mixture of 44mole% benzene and 56 mole\% toluene to give an overhead product of 97.4 mole\% benzene and buttum product of 97.7 mole\% toluene. A reflux ratio of 3.5 is to be used. The molar latent heat of benzene and toluene may be taken as 7165kcal/kmol. The feed is liquid at 295K. Calculate the: (i) The weight of top and bottom products per unit time (ii) The no. of theoretical plates and position of feed plate
