A liquid mixture of acetone and water is to be extracted with pure methylisobutyl ketone (MIK). At 298K,1000kg/h of the mixture containing 25wt% acetone and 75wt% water is treated with the pure MIK in a continuous and countercurrent system to obtain an raffinate containing 2.5wt% acetone. Equilibrium data for Acetone-Water-Methyl Isobutyl Ketone (MIK) system at 298K are shown in Table 2. a) Draw a ternary diagram by using the equilibrium data given in Table 2. b) Determine the minimum flow rate of solvent. c) Determine the composition of the mixing point. d) If a solvent rate equal to S=1.5Smin, calculate the number of stages required
