The caking of crystals can be prevented by _____________________?

Correct answer: D. Both A. and C.

  • A. Maintaining high critical humidity
  • B. Maintaining low critical humidity
  • C. Coating the product with inert material
  • D. Both A. and C.

Explanation

Caking is reduced by keeping the product environment below the critical humidity and by coating crystals with an inert material. A high critical humidity is also desirable because the product then resists moisture uptake under ordinary conditions, so both listed preventive measures are intended in this convention.
