90% of the acetone is absorbed in a gas stream containg 1.0 mole % acetone in air. The total inlet gas flow to the absorption column is 30.0 kgmole/hr and the total water flow is 108 kgmole/hr.. The process operates isothermally at 300k and a pressure of 1 atm. The equlibreium for his system is effectively charicterizedby either henrys law or raoults law. A general equlibreium relationship that can be used is ya=2.53*xa.

A, Plot the operating line and determine the minimum number of stages graphically for the equlibreium relationship

B, Confirm the results of part a using the analytic
