Question

50 kg of a mixture containing 20 wt.% ethanol and the rest water is loaded into a flash drum where it flashes at equilibrium into vapor and liquid. The feed enthalpy is 200 Kcal/kg. The drum pressure is 1 kg/cm2

What is the weight fraction of ethanol in the liquid phase?
What is the temperature of the vapor in the drum?
If the drum is cooled down to bring the mixture above to saturated liquid, what is the latent heat in kcal required to take this mixture from liquid to vapor?
Use the data from this diagram to estimate the mean heat capacity of this saturated liquid mixture. (you do not need any other info than what is on the diagram).
