One of the methods of purification of leach liquor is ion exchange, which involves_________________?

Correct answer: C. Exchange between a liquid phase and an organic resin phase

  • A. Exchange between two liquid phases
  • B. Exchange between a gaseous phase and a liquid phase
  • C. Exchange between a liquid phase and an organic resin phase
  • D. Exchange between a solid phase and a gas phase

Explanation

Ion exchange removes dissolved ions by contacting the leach liquor with an insoluble organic resin containing exchangeable ions. It is therefore an exchange between a liquid phase and an organic resin phase.
