A good solvent used for absorption should not have very high____________________?
Correct answer: D. All A., B. & C.
- A. Viscosity
- B. Vapor pressure
- C. Freezing point
- D. All A., B. & C.
Explanation
An absorption solvent should have low viscosity for rapid mass transfer, low vapour pressure to minimize solvent loss, and a low freezing point to remain fluid in operation. Therefore all three listed properties should not be very high.
