Please do the graph at the end and show equations!!!! 6. Distillation is used to separate pentane from hpexane. The feed amounts 100 mol/s and has a mole ratio pentane/hexane =0.5. The bottom and top products have the composi- tions xp =0.05 and xp =0.98. The reflux ratio is 2.25. The column pressure is i bar. The feed, at the bubbling point, enters the column exactly on the feed tray. The tray temperature is equal to the feed temperature. The pentane vapor pressure is given by: 310 p = exp(11.(bar) T(K)(1 atm =1.013 bar) The vapor pressure of hexane is 1/3 of the pentane vapor pressure over the whole temperature range. The average density of liquid pentane and hexane amount 8170 resp. 7280 mol/m'. The heat of vaporization amounts 30 kJ/mol. The distance between the trays amounts 0.50 m. a. Calculate the feed temperature b. Calculate the vapor stream from the reboiler c. Calculate the required energy in the reboiler d. Construct the yox diagram e. Construct the operating lines and locate the feed line f. Determine the number of equilibrium stages g. Determine the height of the column
