Mass Transfer
According to the Fenske equation, what will be the minimum number of plates required in a distillation column to separate an equimolar binary mixture of components A and B into an overhead fraction containing 99 mol% A and a bottom fraction containing 98 mol% B? Assume that relative volatility (αAB = 2) does not change appreciably in the coloumn.

Mass Transfer
In case of absorption with exothermic reaction, for fluids having

Pr = Sc = 1; total mass, momentum and thermal diffusivity will be the same
Both A & B
Pr = Sc ; there won
Pr = Sc; percentage change in heat and mass transfer flux will be the same for a given change in the degree of turbulence
