D3.* A distillation system with a still pot plus a column with one equilibrium stage is used to batch distill 1.0 kmol of a 57.0 mol% methanol and 43.0 mol% water feed. A total condenser is used. The final bottoms concentration is 15.0 mol% methanol. Pressure is 101.3 kPa. Reflux is a saturated liquid, and Lo/D = 1.85. Find Wfinal, Dtotal, and XD,avg. VLE data are in Table 2-8.
