Mass Transfer The main reason for dividing a tall packed tower into series of small towers is to Avoid channeling Reduce liquid hold up Avoid flooding Minimise the overall pressure drop Avoid channeling Reduce liquid hold up Avoid flooding Minimise the overall pressure drop ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
Mass Transfer An air-water vapour mixture has a dry bulb temperature of 60°C and a dew point temperature of 40°C. The total pressure is 101.3 kPa and the vapour pressure of water at 40°C and 60°C are 7.30 kPa and 19.91 kPa respectively.The humidity of air sample expressed as kg of water vapour/kg of dry air is 0.122 0.152 0.079 0.048 0.122 0.152 0.079 0.048 ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
Mass Transfer If the solubilities of different components (in a liquid-liquid extraction system) increase with rise in temperature, then the temperature above which they dissolve completely is known as the critical solution temperature (CST or consolute temperature). If solubilities increase with decrease in temperature, then CST is the temperature below which they dissolve completely. If a binary system has no critical solution temperature, it implies that The system comprises of miscible liquids The system comprises of partially mis-cible liquids The system comprises of an azeotrope On heating, a vapor phase will appear ; while on cooling, a solid phase will appear The system comprises of miscible liquids The system comprises of partially mis-cible liquids The system comprises of an azeotrope On heating, a vapor phase will appear ; while on cooling, a solid phase will appear ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP

Mass Transfer Though, theoretically the adsorption & desorption isotherms is expected to coincide but sometimes at least a part of the isotherms does not coincide and this phenomenon is known as adsorption hysterisis. In such cases, the desorption equilibrium pressure is __________ that obtained for adsorption. Lower than Either same or higher than Same as Higher than Lower than Either same or higher than Same as Higher than ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
