Question

Solubility of silver nitrate in water: 952 kg of silver nitrate per 100 kg of water at 373K and 222 kg of silver nitrate per 100 kg of water at 293 K.

 

Calculate the fraction of silver nitrate in the feed stream removed eventually as dry crystals

The amount of water evaporated during the drying operation
