From a liquid mixture of A and B, component A is extracted in a single-stage extraction system using pure solvent C. The flow rate of the feed solution containing 10% A by weight is 500kg/h. The flow rate of the extraction solvent containing 1% A by weight is 1000 kg/h. Components B and C do not mix at all. Since 90% of A in the feed stream is extracted, what is the amount of the output extract phase
