Question: Below is a two - stage countercurrent liquid liquid extraction unit. The feed enters from the 1 st Stage at a flow rate of 1

Below is a two-stage countercurrent liquid liquid extraction unit. The feed enters from the 1st Stage at a flow rate of 100 kg per hour. 95% of the feed consists of component 3(C3) and 5% consists of component 2(C2). C2 in this mixture is extracted with component 1(C1) sent with countercurrent from the 2nd stage. The distribution coefficients (K) for components 1,2 and 3 are 20,5 and 0.1, respectively. Find the amounts and compositions of the upper and lower phases emerging from the stages (and then the concentrations of the components C1, C2 and C3(in the upper phase) manually and with a computer program.L1,L2 ve L3;x1,x2 ve x3
