Question: Q 1 0 . A solution has the following composition, expressed as mole fraction: ethane, 0 . 0 0 2 5 ; propane, 0 .

Q10. A solution has the following composition, expressed as mole fraction: ethane, 0.0025; propane, 0.25 ; isobutane, 0.185 ; n-butane, 0.560 ; isopentane, 0.0025. In the following, the pressure is 10 bars. Use the equilibrium distribution coefficients from the DePriester nomograph (Chem. Eng. Prog. Symp. Ser., Vol. 49, issue 7, pp.1(1953) and Chemical Engineers' Handbook, 5th ed., Fig. 13-6b or any other higher Eds.),(i) calculate the bubble and dew points. If the solution is flash vaporized to vaporize 40 mol% of the feed, (ii) calculate the composition of the products. If the solution is differentially distilled to produce a residue containing 0.80 mole fraction n-butane, (iii) calculate the complete composition of the residue and the % of the feed which is vaporized.
