A feed of 3 0 mol % methanol ( A ) , 2 0 % ethanol ( B ) , 1 5 % n -

A feed of 30mol% methanol (A),20% ethanol (B),15%n-propanol (C), and 35%n butanol (D) is distilled at 101.32kPa abs pressure to give a distillate composition containing 95.0 mol% methanol and residue composition containing 5.0% methanol and the other containing reflux ratio is 3.0. Assume Raoult's law applies and use vapor-pressure data given below.
a) Compositions and amounts of distillate and bottoms for feed of 100molh.
b) Top (62-68C) and bottom (92-98C) temperatures and number of stages at total reflux.
Vapor Pressures (atm)
