Experiments were conducted to determine the flux of a species A in a stagnant medium across a gas-liquid interface. The overall mass transfer co-efficient based on the liquid side for dilute systems for the above was estimated to be 4 x 10⁻³ kg mole/m².s. The equilibrium data for the system is given as y = 2x. The flux across the interface (in kg mole/m² .s) for bulk concentrations of A in gas phase and liquid phase as y = 0.4 and x = 0.01 respectively is

5.6 x 10⁻⁴
8.5 x 10⁻⁴
5.6 x 10⁻³
8.5 x 10⁻³
✅ The correct answer is option B.

Solvent extraction is the terminology applied to the liquid-liquid extraction, which is preferred for the separation of the components of liquids, when

Extracting solvent is cheaply & abundantly available
One of the liquid components is heat sensitive
Viscosity of liquid components is very high
One of the liquid components has very high affinity towards the solvent
✅ The correct answer is option D.
