Q3. A single-equilibrium-stage batch still pot is used to separate methanol (MeOH) from water. The feed with the total amount of 50 moles of an 80mol%MeOH is charged into the still pot operated at 1atm desired distillate concentration ( XD) is 89.2mol%MeOH. Using the equilibrium data of methanol shown in the Table. ( 8 marks) Determine: 5- the total amount of the distillate collected (D). 6- the amount of material (liquid or waste) that remained in the pot after the distillation has ended (Wfinal) and its corresponding concentration ( xwfinal). \begin{tabular}{l} Rayleigh equation: \\ x0xyxdx=ln(W0W) \\ \hline \end{tabular} Note: start your solution with a guess value of xW=0.60, you need to do only two iterations solution.
