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.
