Q#1 GATE CH 2013 MCQ +2 marks -0.66 marks

A crosscurrent cascade of N ideal stages is used to treat a feed stream of molar flow rate E. The feed stream contains a solute which is to be recovered by a pure solvent having a molar flow rate S. The solvent is divided equally between these N stages. The linear equilibrium curve relating the mole fractions x and y* of the solute in the raffinate and the extract respectively, is given by . Assume dilute conditions. The ratio of the solute mole fraction in the original feed to that in the exit raffinate stream i.e.  is given by
