At equilibrium the concentration of water in vapour phase (C*) in kg/m3 of air space and the amount of water (m) adsorbed per kg of dry silica gel are related by, C* = 0.0667m. To maintain dry conditions in a room of air space 100m3 containing 2.2 kg of water vapour initially, 10 kg of dry silica gel is kept in the room. The fraction of initial water remaining in the air space after a long time (during which the temperature is maintained constant) is_________________?
  • (A)  0.0
  • (B)  0.2
  • (C)  0.4
  • (D)  1.0
In saturated gas, the__________________?
  • (A)  Vapour is in equilibrium with the liquid at the gas temperature
  • (B)  Vapour is in equilibrium with the liquid at the room temperature
  • (C)  Partial pressure of vapour equals the vapour pressure of the liquid at room temperature
  • (D)  None of these
