6 . 1 3 b . Difterential distillation of a mixture of isopropenol in water A mixture of 4 0 mol % isopropanol in water

6.13b. Difterential distillation of a mixture of isopropenol in water
A mixture of 40mol% isopropanol in water is to be differentially distilled at
1atm until 70mol% of the charge has been vaporized. Calculate the composition
of the liquid residue in the still pot, and the average composition of the collected
distillate. VLE data for this system, in mol fraction of isopropanol, at 1 atm are
(Seader and Henley, 1998):
Composition of the azeotrope is x=y=0.685; boiling point of the azeotrope =
353.2K.
Answer: yD,av=0.543
