Asingle-stage extraction is performed in which 400 kg of a solution containing 35 wt % acetic acid in water is contacted with 400 kg of pure isopropyl ether. calculate the amounts and compositions of the extract and raffinate layers. solve for the amounts both algebraically and by the lever-arm rule. what percent of the acetic acid is removed? use equilibrium data from appendix a.3.
