7. A mixture of benzene and toluene is to be distilled in a batch still with one equilibrium stage (total of two equilibrium contacts). The column has a total condenser and reflux is returned as a saturated liquid. The initial feed is 10.0 kmol and is 50 mol% benzene. Distillation is continued at a constant reflux ratio L/D = 1 until the concentration of benzene in the still reaches 20-mole %. (a) Find $X_{D, avg}$. (15 points) (b) Find $W_{final}$ (kmoles) and $D_{total}$. (15 points)

2. (40 points) Consider the simple model of firm choice developed in class. The firm maximizes profits $\pi$ by choosing labor N, taking the wage $w$ as given. The production function used by the firm is $zK^\alpha N^{1-\alpha}$, $\alpha \in (0, 1)$ where capital K is exogenously fixed and z is total factor productivity. (a) (20) Solve for the optimal labor demand of the firm. In a diagram, show the firm's labor demand curve. In the same diagram, show what happens to the labor demand curve if an earthquake destroys part of the firm's stock of capital. 2 (b) (20) Imagine there are two firms using the same production function and the same quantity of capital, but the TFP of one firm is $z_H$ while the TFP of the other firm is $z_L < z_H$. Which firm will hire more labor? Derive an expression showing the factor difference in labor demanded between the two firms (ie, calculate the ratio of labor demanded by firm H over firm L). If $z_H = 4 \cdot z_L$ and $\alpha = 1/2$, how much more labor will the larger firm hire?
