In case of absorption, both the operating and equilibrium lines will be straight for______________?

Correct answer: C. Dilute solutions and isothermal operation

  • A. Isothermal operation
  • B. Dilute solutions
  • C. Dilute solutions and isothermal operation
  • D. None of these

Explanation

For dilute solutions at constant temperature, the equilibrium relation is approximately linear, such as y* = mx, and constant physical properties make the operating line linear as well. Isothermal operation alone does not guarantee a straight equilibrium line.
