Chemical Engineering > GATE 2023 > Distillation
Distillation of a non-reactive binary mixture with components π΄ and π΅ is carried
out in a batch still as shown in the figure below. The initial charge of the mixture in
the still is 1 kmol. The initial and final amounts of π΄ in the still are 0.1 kmol and
0.01 kmol, respectively. Use a constant relative volatility of 4.5. The mole fraction
of π΅ remaining in the vessel is _______ (rounded off to three decimal places).


Correct : 0.317
