1) A mixture of 62 wt% water, 28% methyl isobutyl ketone acetone and the remainder acetone are brought to equilibrium at 25°C. If the total mass of the system is 3.2 kg, use the data in triangular phase diagrams for water-acetone-methyl isobutyl ketone (Figure 6.6.1) to estimate the composition and mass of each phase of the mixture.
