Question: Question 1 ( 1 5 Marks ) One mole per hour of a liquid solution containing 6 0 mole % benzene and the remainder toluene

Question 1(15 Marks)
One mole per hour of a liquid solution containing 60 mole % benzene and the remainder toluene enters a flash column. The liquid product stream contains 47mole% benzene and the vapor product stream contains 69 mole % benzene. The temperature of both output stream is at 93C. Assume that the operation is adiabatic.
Useful information:
Cpbenz(l)=0.1265kJmol*C;Cpbenz(v)=0.07406kJmol*C;
Tbbenz=80.1C;Hvbenz(@80.1C)=30.765kJmol
Cptol(l)=0.1488kJmol*C;Cptol(v)=0.09418kJmol*C;
Tbtol=110.62C;Hvtol(@110.62C)=33.47kJmol
a) Draw and label the process flow diagram completely. Calculate the liquid and vapor mole fractions of the outlet streams.
