A mixture containing 20 mole % butane, 35 mole % pentane and 45 mole % hexane is to be separated by fractional distillation into a distillate product with a composition 95 mole % butane, 4 mole % pentane and 1 mole % hexane, and a bottoms product. The recovery of butane in the distillate must be 90%. Determine the composition of the bottoms product.
