A binary liquid mixture of 50 mol% n-hexane (C6H14) and 50 mol% n-heptane (C7H16) is fed to a flash drum operating at 1520 mmHg pressure. The feed rate (F) is 100 gmol/s. The mixture is heated to 111 oC and vapor and liquid products are removed continuously.a) Draw and label the process flowchart completelyb) Estimate the vapor and liquid flow rates and molar fractions in each vapor (V) and liquid stream (L).c) Compare the fractional recoveries of hexane in the vapor stream and heptane in the liquid stream?
