4.3. A liquid mixture of benzene and toluene contains 55.0% benzene by mass. The mixture is to be
partially evaporated to yield a vapor containing 85.0% benzene and a residual liquid containing 10.6%
benzene by mass.
(a) Suppose the process is to be carried out continuously and at steady state, with a feed rate of
100.0 kg/h of the 55% mixture. Let m, (kg/h) and m, (kg/h) be the mass flow rates of the vapor

(c) Returning to the continuous process, suppose the evaporator is built and started up and the product
stream flow rates and compositions are measured. The measured percentage of benzene in the
vapor stream is 85% and the product stream flow rates have the values calculated in part (a), but the
liquid product stream is found to contain 7% benzene instead of 10.6%. One possible explanation is
that a mistake was made in the measurement. Give at least five others. [Think about assumptions
you made in obtaining the solution of part (a).]
