Two film theory applies for absorption of a solute from a gas mixture into a liquid solvent. The interfacial mass transfer coefficient (in mol m-2s-1) for the gas side is 0.1 and for the liquid side is 3. The equilibrium relationship is y* = 2x, where x and y* are mole fractions of the solute in the liquid and gas phases, respectively. The ratio of the mass transfer resistance in the liquid film to the overall resistance is
