The principle applied in liquefaction of gases is_____________________?
Correct answer: C. Both A. and B
- A. Adiabatic expansion
- B. Joule-Thomson effect
- C. Both A. and B
- D. Neither A. nor B
Explanation
Gas liquefaction commonly uses cooling by adiabatic expansion and the Joule-Thomson effect. Thus both listed principles are involved in standard liquefaction processes.
