Dear Experts,

 

For binary mixtures, min number of stage can be calculated using fenske equation.

My question is , can i use weight fraction instead of mole fraction in this equation ? 

this question is comes into the picture because sum of weight fraction and mole fraction will be 1 in binary mixture. 

 

Please share your comments for the same.

Thank you in advance

Regards!

Kiran

really simple, just do some mathematical derivation and then you will know
