Find the operating line slope Where, X,Y- concentration in mole ratio of liquid and gas phase x,y-concentration in mole fraction Gs,Ls- mole free basis( non-diffusing solvent)

Correct Answer: –Ls/Gs
Gs(Y1)+Ls(X1)= Gs(Y2)+Ls(X2) Gs(Y1-Y2)= Ls(X2-X1) Y2-Y1= -Ls/Gs(X2-X1) Slope of the operating line is –Ls/Gs.
