A solvent-extraction process usingN,N − diethyldodecanamide, which is insoluble in water and has a density of 0.847 g / cm3 . In a typical experiment at 30°C, 50 g of 20 wt % citric acid and 80 wt % water was contacted with 0.85 g of amide. The resulting organic phase, assumed to be in equilibrium with the aqueous phase, contained 6.39 wt % citric acid and 2.97 wt % water. Determine the partition (distribution) coefficients for citric acid and water

1. Why organic solvent is often used in liquid-liquid extraction? 2. Name the adverse effects which occur when a trayed absorption tower operates at too high and too low vapor flow rate? 3. Component separation involving two or more phases (regardless of technique) occurs because systems want to achieve equlibrium and as a result, mass transfer occurs. In a scenario where this mass transfer is particularly slow, would it be more accurate to model a system based on phase equlibrium...
