The reciprocal of stripping factor is termed as ________________________?
Correct answer: C. Absorption factor
- A. Selectivity index
- B. Relative volatility
- C. Absorption factor
- D. Murphree efficiency
Explanation
The stripping factor is the ratio of the stripping tendency to the liquid-flow effect, so its reciprocal is the absorption factor. The other choices describe volatility, selectivity, or tray efficiency rather than the opposing flow ratio.
