If moisture content of solid on dry basis is X, then the same on wet basis is____________________?
Correct answer: A. X/(X + 1)
- A. X/(X + 1)
- B. X/(1 - X)
- C. (1 + X)/X
- D. (1 - X)/X
Explanation
On a dry basis, X equals the mass of moisture divided by the mass of dry solid. Converting to wet basis divides moisture by dry solid plus moisture, giving X/(1 + X).
