Chemical Engineering > GATE 2010 > Absorption
Water is used to absorb ammonia from a gas mixture in a single separation stage contactor. The process is schematically represented in the figure below.
The molar gas and liquid flow rates, and the inlet mole fractions are given in the figure. Both the liquid and the gas phases are well mixed, and the equilibrium relation between y and x is given by y*=x.
If the stage is ideal, then the value of y is

If the stage is ideal, then the value of y is
Correct : c
