Mass Transfer
When acetone is added in a two layer mixture of methyl isobutyl ketone and water at 30°C, the acetone distributes between the two layers and the composition of the layer follows two solubility curves. For this system,

The distribution curve which is a plot between x (acetone concentration in one phase) and y (acetone concentration in other phase) is analogous to x-y curve used in distillation and absorption termina
As the acetone concentration increases, the solubility curves approach each other
Both the phases become identical at a particular common point on both the solubility curves called the plait point
All of these

Mass Transfer
An aqueous solution of methanol is to be distilled in a tray column. High pressure steam is available as a source of heat. For a given reflux ratio and overhead composition, two options are being explored; (i) a reboiler is used and (ii) no reboiler is used but steam is fed directly to the bottom of the column. As compared to option (i), in option (ii)

Less number of trays are required
More number of trays are required but the residue composition remains unchanged
More number of trays are required and the residue composition is more dilute in methanol
Composition of the residue remains unchanged

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

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