Question: Q 3 . ( 2 5 ) Carbon dioxide is absorbed in water at 2 0 C and 1 atm in a packed column. For

Q3.(25) Carbon dioxide is absorbed in water at 20C and 1atm in a packed column. For this system it may be assume that 98% of the resistance to mass transfer occurs in the liquid film and the overall coefficient is Ky'=0.95kmolssm2.mo frac. For dilute solution of carbon dioxide in water, the equilibrium eurve can be expressed in terms of the Henry' Law constant by PA=1.4210-3xA where PA is the partial pressure of A in the gas film in atm, xA is the mole fraction in the liquid, and the Henry's law constant has units, atm/mole firaction. Assuming equimolar counter diffision calculate the followings
a)ky'
b)kx
c)K** :
d)kG'
