The chlorinator used in the manufacture of DDT is made of___________________?

Correct answer: B. Glass lined steel

  • A. Glass
  • B. Glass lined steel
  • C. Teflon
  • D. Bakelite

Explanation

The chlorinator handles highly corrosive chlorine and chlorinating mixtures, so glass-lined steel provides corrosion resistance together with the mechanical strength of steel. Plain glass is too fragile for a large process vessel, while Bakelite and Teflon are not the usual vessel construction.
