Slope of rectifying line is given by(a) R/XD(b) R/(R+1)(c) F/ (D+W)(d) R/(R+1)The question was asked in semester exam.My question is from Mccabe Thiele Diagram-Construction topic in section Key Fractionation Concepts of Distillation Design

Answer»

Correct option is (b) R/(R+1)

The BEST EXPLANATION: The rectifying LINE slope is always given as ratio of Reflux ratio plus UNITY i.e. R/(R+1), While R/XD gives us the reflux to liquid ratio for the OPERATION.
