As particle size is reduced__________________?
Correct answer: A. Screening becomes progressively more difficult
- A. Screening becomes progressively more difficult
- B. Screening becomes progressively easier
- C. Capacity and effectiveness of the screen is increased
- D. None of these
Explanation
Very small particles are difficult to screen because they tend to agglomerate, pass slowly through the apertures, and blind the screen. Thus, screening becomes progressively more difficult as particle size decreases.
