Extracted text: 1) A distillation column is used to separate 2000 kg/h of mixture containing 800 kg methanol (Mw = 32 kg/mol) and the remaining is ethanol (Mw kg/mol). Product streams leave the top and the bottom of the distillation column. The flow rate of = 46 the bottom stream is measured and found to be 400 kg/h and is analyzed and found to contain 50% ethanol by mass. a) Draw and label a flowchart of the process. b) Calculate the mass flow rate of the top stream.
