Reciprocal of sphericity is termed as the________________?

Correct answer: B. Shape factor

  • A. Specific surface ratio
  • B. Shape factor
  • C. Sauter diameter
  • D. Surface area per unit mass

Explanation

Sphericity compares the surface area of a volume-equivalent sphere with the actual particle surface area, so its reciprocal is a shape factor. The other options describe surface-area measures or a particle-size diameter.
