    C = Glycerol

    B = 2481.9327 mol

    D = Potassium Stearate

    S5 = 3746.6533 mol

    S6 = 1264.7206 mol

    A = 107.6853

    A = 107.6277 mol

    B = 2481.9327

    C = 92.3246 mol

    C = 92.1723

    D = 1064.7683 mol

    D = 1064.8630

    Mole fraction of each component:


    A = 0.02874
    B = 0.6624
    C = 0.0246
    D = 0.2842
    Assumptions: 100 % of KOH is separated from the mixture based on its boiling point.
    Overall mass balance:
    S5 = S6 + B
    3746.6533 = S6 + 2481.9327

    S6 = 1264.7206 mol
    Balance of A
    3746.6533 (0.02874) = 1264.7206 (A) + 2481.9327 (0)
    A = 0.0851
    Balance of B
    3746.6533 (0.6624) = 1264.7206 (0) + 2481.9327 (1)
    B=0
    Balance of C
    3746.6533 (0.0246) = 1264.7206 (C) + 2481.9327 (0)
    C = 0.0730
    Balance of D
    3746.6533 (0.2842) = 1264.7206 (D) + 2481.9327 (0)

    Overall mass balance:
    Assumptions: 100 % of Potassium Stearate is separated from the mixture based on its boiling
    point
    S7 = S8 + D
    1264.7206 = S8 + 1264.7206(0.8419)
    S8 = 199.9523 mol

    Balance of A
    1264.7206 (0.0851) = 199.9523 (A) + 1064.7683(0)
    A = 0.5383
    Balance of C
    1264.7206 (0.0730) = 199.9523 C) + 1064.7683 (0)
    C = 0.4617
    Balance of D

    C = 0.4617
    Assumptions: 100 % of Stearin is separated from the mixture based on its boiling point
    S9 = S10 + A
    199.9523 = S10 + 107.6343
    S10 = 92.3180 mol
    Balance of A
    199.9523 (0.5383) = 92.3180 (0) + 107.6343 (1)
