Question 2:
Mark (
In the differential distillation column, a binary mixture of acetic acid and water is used, Where: The amount of the liquil the container at the end of the distillation process =37.79kg; Initial acetic acid concentration=60%; Final acetic acid concentration =70%; The equilibrium relationship for the binary mixture of acetic acid and water is:
yi=0.4+0.3
The amount of the liquid in the container at the start of the distillation process is:
a)120Kg
b)100Kg
c)100gm
Question 3:
Mark (/9)
A liquid mixture of benzene-toluene is to be distilled in a flash distillation tower at 101.3kPa pressure. The feed is liquid and it contains 45mol% benzene and 55mol% toluene and enters at or (:130F}. A distillate containing 95mol% benzene and 5mol% toluene and a bottom containing 10mol% benzene and 90mol% toluene is to be obtained. The reflux ratio is 4: 1. The average heat capacity of the feed is 159kJkgmol.K(38BTUlbmolF) and the average latent heat 32099kJkgmol (13800BTUlbmol ). The kg moles per hour distillate is 60kgmolh. The equilibrium data for this system is given in this Figure.

b)127.2kgmolhr
c)137.2kgmolhr
If the fraction of the feed liquid that is evaporated is equal to zero, and the flow rate is equal to 100kgmolhr. The kg moles per hour distillate is:
a)0kgmo
b)2kgmolhr
c)37.5kgmolhr
