3. A saturated-liquid mixture of benzene and toluene is fed at a rate of 350 mol/h into a distillation column. The feed consists of 154 mol/h of benzene. It is desired to obtain 97.4 mol% of benzene at the top and 97.6 mol % of toluene at the bottom. L/V at the top of the column is kept constant at 0.778. (a) What are the flow rates of distillate and bottoms products? (b) What is the reflux ratio, R of this column? (c) What is the ratio of reflux to minimum reflux? (d) Determine the number of theoretical stages needed using McCabe-Thiele method. (Equilibrium curve for benzene-toluene system is given below)
