Question: Two flow streams represented by K and M on the triangular diagram enter a mixer at 4 0 k g m i n and 8

Two flow streams represented by K and M on the triangular diagram enter a mixer at 40kgmin and
80kgmin, respectively.
(a)(10 pts) carry out mass balance to determine the overall composition in the mixer and mark it on
the phase diagram.
(b)(25 pts) Two equilibrium liquid phases will develop in the mixer. Draw a tie line to determine
their compositions and then the flow rate in kgmin of the water-rich liquid phase.
