A stream containing 57 mol % n-Octane and the remainder Ethylene is to be separated by flash distillation. The molar flow rate of the stream is 823 mol/hr. The temperature and pressure of the stream entering the flash drum are 105°C and 325 kPa. Determine the K-values from a DePriester chart, analytically solve the material balance.
