This lecture covers the process of liquid-liquid extraction, where a solute is transferred from one liquid phase to another. The instructor explains the principles behind this operation, using the example of extracting acetic acid from a mixture into 1-hexanol. The lecture includes topics such as material balances, maximum number of independent equations, and calculating differences in mixture compositions. Various scenarios and calculations are presented to illustrate the extraction process and its efficiency.
