Question

Please note all assumptions and when appendix values are used.

29.7 In a gas-liquid interface mass-transfer process, the bulk
mole fraction composition of solute A in the inert carrier gas is
0.010, and the bulk mole fraction composition of solute A in
the inert liquid solvent is 0.040. Equilibrium distribution data
at the temperature and pressure of the process are provided
below:
XA 0.0000 0.0050 0.0100 0.0150 0.0200 0.0250 0.0300 0.0350 0.0400
YA 0.0000 0.0015 0.0030 0.0055 0.0090 0.0135 0.0200 0.0290 0.0425
a. If the liquid film mass-transfer coefficient k = 0.01 gmole/
m². s, and the gas film mass-transfer coefficient ky = 0.02
gmole/m². s, what is the overall mass-transfer coefficient
based on the gas phase driving force, and the % resistance to
mass-transfer in the gas phase?

b. If the liquid film mass-transfer coefficient is still kx = 0.01
gmole/m². s, what is the new value of ky required to make
the process 10% gas phase mass-transfer controlling?
C.
Plot (XA, YA,i) on the equilibrium line in yA - XA coordinates
for parts (a) and (b), and compare results.
