 Consider a steady state mass transfer process between well mixed liquid

Consider a steady state mass transfer process between well mixed liquid and vapor phases of a binary mixture comprising of components A and B. The mole frac- tions of component A in the bulk liquid (x2) and bulk vapor V) phases are 0.36 and 0.16 respectively. The mass transfer coefficients for component A in liquid and vapor phases are 0.1 mol/(ms) and 0.05 mol/ ms, respectively. The vapor liquid equilibrium can be approximated as ya = 2x4, for x less than 0.4. The mole fraction of A in the liquid at the interface (upto two decimal places) is A' A
