A mixture of 35 mole% n-hexane (C6H14) and rest n-heptane (C7H16) is fed to a flash drum operating at 1500 mmHg pressure. The feed rate is 100 mol/s. The mixture is heated to 100C, and the vapor and liquid are removed continuously. Assuming ideal conditions, calculate vapor and liquid flow rates and compositions.
