The following feed mixture is to be separated by ordinary distillation at 120 psia so as to obtain 92.5 mole% of the nc, in the liquid distillate and 82.0 mole% of the iC5 in the bottoms Lbmole/hr C3 iC nC ic nC 10 15 25 20 30 100 a) Estimate the minimum number of equilibrium stages required by applying the b) Use the Fenske equation to determine the distribution of nonkey components c) Assuming that the feed is at its bubble point, use the Underwood method to d) Determine the number of theoretical stages required by the Gililand correlation e) Estimate the feed-stage location Fenske equation. Obtain K-values from Fig. 5 between distillate and bottoms estimate the minimum reflux ratio assuming LD 1.2 (LD)min, a partial reboiler, and a total condenser
