To remove all the moisture from a wet solid it requires exposure to _____________ air?

Correct answer: A. Perfectly dry

  • A. Perfectly dry
  • B. Highly humid
  • C. High temperature
  • D. None of these

Explanation

Complete removal of moisture requires air with zero moisture content, because any water vapour in the air establishes a nonzero equilibrium moisture content in the solid. Highly humid air would reduce the drying driving force rather than remove all moisture.
