During the preparations of hydrogen chloride gas on a humid day, the gas is usually passed through the guard tube containing calcium chloride. The role of the calcium chloride taken in the guard tube is to -SST 10th

1 Answer

Answer :

C - Calcium chloride is a good dehydrating agent. It absorbs moisture or water content from the gas making it dry. Calcium chloride is widely used as a desiccant for drying gases and liquid hydrocarbons in many industries due to its ability to absorb water.
