Humidification involves mass transfer between a pure liquid phase and a fixed gas, which is___________________?
Correct answer: D. Insoluble in the liquid
- A. At a fixed temperature
- B. Soluble in the liquid
- C. Non-ideal in nature
- D. Insoluble in the liquid
Explanation
Humidification transfers vapor from a pure liquid into a fixed, usually noncondensable gas that is insoluble or nearly insoluble in the liquid. The gas remains essentially the carrier phase while liquid vaporizes into it.
