1. Air containing mole fraction of 0.25 methyl formate is mixed with pure water at 1atm and 25C. The gas mixture enters the mixer at 100kmol/h. Water at the same rate is used to absorb methyl formate from air. What are the amounts of liquid and vapor leaving the mixer? How much methyl formate is removed from air when water and air are assumed immiscible? 2. If we increase the amount of water from the previous problem to 200kmol/h. What happens to the amount of liquid and vapor leaving the mixer? Did we increase the removal of methyl formate? 3. If methyl acetate is removed instead of methyl formate at same composition, feed rates, temperature and pressure to problem 1 . How much liquid and vapor would be leaving the mixer? How much methyl acetate is removed compared with methyl formate
