Mass Transfer
Compound A is extracted from a solution of A + B into a pure solvent S. A Co-current unit is used for the liquid-liquid extraction. The inlet rate of the solution containing A is 200 moles of B/hr.m² and the solvent flow, rate is 400 moles of S/m². hr. The equilibrium data is represented by Y = 3X² , where Y is in moles of a A/moles of B and X is in moles A/moles of S. The maximum percentage extraction achieved in the unit is

0.5
0.25
0.7
0.9

Mass Transfer
In case of steam distillation, the steam leaving the liquid is not completely saturated with distillate vapour, because

Mixing of steam with the material being vaporised is not so intimate as to result in equilibrium condition
Temperature is less
Total pressure is less
Saturated steam is used for steam distillation
