Question 2: (20marks) Data for the filtration of calcium carbonate slurry in water at 298.2K (25°C) are reported as (R1,R2,M1) at constant pressure of 46.2 kN/m²(6.70psia). The area of the plate-and-frame press was 0.0439 m² (0.473 ft) and the slurry concentration was 23.47 kg solid/m³ filtrate. Calculate the constant a and Rm. Data given as below: Vx 10³¹ (m³) 0.5 1.0 1.5 2.0 2.5 3.0 dax t(s) 17.3 41.3 72.0 108.3 152.0 201.7
