For contacting a highly soluble gas with a liquid ____________________?
Correct answer: B. Bubble the gas through liquid
- A. Spray the liquid on gas stream
- B. Bubble the gas through liquid
- C. Either A. or B. would suffice
- D. None of these
Explanation
A highly soluble gas is efficiently contacted by dispersing it as bubbles through the liquid, giving repeated gas-liquid contact and rapid absorption. Spraying liquid into the gas is more commonly preferred for gases with lower solubility.
