Question 34
CHNAT1 markNeeds review
A liquid
containing a dissolved gas
is stripped in a countercurrent operation using a pure carrier gas
. The liquid phase inlet and outlet mole fractions of
are 0.1 and 0.01, respectively. The equilibrium distribution of
between
and
is governed by
, where
and
are the mole fractions of
in
and
, respectively. The molar feed rate of the carrier gas stream is twice that of the liquid stream. Under dilute solution conditions, the minimum number of ideal stages required is __________ (in integer).Log in to check the answer
