B-Calculate the tower height using HG and NG.

(c) - Calculate the absorption factor, assuming the slope of the equilibrium line is 1.253, and L=45.58 kmol/h

3. (8 pts total) Absorption of Acetone in a Packed Tower. Acetone is being absorbed by water in a packed tower having a cross-sectional area of 0.186 m at 293 K and 1 atm pressure. The inlet air contains 3.6 mol % acetone and oulet 0.5%. The gas flow is 13.65 kmol inert air/h. The pure water inlet flow is 45.36 kmol water/h. Film coefficients for the given flows in the tower are kra = 6.16 x 10-2 kmol/(sm3 mol frac) and k'ya = 3.78 x 10-2 kmol/(s.m3 . mol frac). Relevant data is given below.
