_______________ columns are used for liquid dispersion in a continuous gas phase ?
Correct answer: A. Packed
- A. Packed
- B. Pulse
- C. Bubble cap
- D. Sieve plate
Explanation
In a packed column, gas forms the continuous phase while liquid spreads over the packing as a dispersed film. This arrangement provides the interfacial area needed for gas-liquid mass transfer.
