SOLUTION
In the above problem, Cyclo-Hexane is the solute, The Inerts
make up the carrier gas and the non-volatile absorption oil is
the solvent.
Y refers to mole ratio of the solute in the gas phase and is
given by
=
Where y is the mole fraction in the gas phase (usually given
in % as seen above in the problem statement)
In the same vein, X refers to mole ratio of the solute in the
liquid phase and is given by
=
Where x is the mole fraction in the liquid phase.
Also, X1 and Y1 refer to the solute mole ratios at the bottom
of the absorption tower while X2 and Y2 refer to the solute
mole ratios at the top of the absorption tower. X and Y refer
to the solute mole ratios at all other points in the absorption
tower other than at the top or bottom.
The following equilibrium data are calculated from the given
equilibrium relation in the problem statement.
