A mixture containing 65.0 mole% acetone (Ac) and the balance acetic acid (AA) is separated in a continuous distillation column at 1 atm. A flowchart for the operation is as follows:
The stream from the top of the column is a vapor that passes through a condenser.
The condensed liquid is divided into two equal streams: one is taken off as the overhead product (distillate) and the other (the reflux) is returned to the column.
The stream from the bottom of the column is a liquid that is partially vaporized in a reboiler.
The liquid stream emerging from the reboiler is taken off as the bottoms product, and the vapor is returned to the column as boil-up. Negligible heat is lost from the column so that the only places in the system where external heat transfer takes place are the condenser and the reboiler.
How would this be done in detail?

Water vapor initially at 10 bar and 400 °c is contained within a piston-cylinder assembly. the water lost heat to the surrounding according to isochoric (iso-volumetric) process until its temperature is 150 °c. the water is then condensed isothermally to saturated liquid. for the water as a system, calculate the work in kj/kg
