Flash Distillation activity A flash distillation still operates at \\( 101.3 \\mathrm{kPa} \\) for separation of an ethanol-water mixture. The feed mixture is \20mathrmmol ethanol and \\( F=100 \\mathrm{kmol} / \\mathrm{h} \\). If \60 of the feed is vaporized: a) What are the compositions of the vapor and liquid leaving the flash distillation chamber? b) what is the temperature of the distillation chamber? c) what is the amount of ethanol recovered in the distillate. d) Repeat step c, given that \\( F \\) is specified as \\( 1000 \\mathrm{kmol} / \\mathrm{h} \\). Important: Use the equilibrium diagram that you consider more adequate for this system
