← ScienceWhich consequence results when a desiccant containing calcium chloride exceeds its moisture absorption limit?
A)Lowered ionic conductivity occurs✓
B)Hydrolysis drives esterification
C)Exothermic crystallization accelerates
D)Increased lattice enthalpy results
💡 Explanation
Ionic conductivity decreases because the calcium ions become less mobile due to increased interactions with water molecules in concentrated solution. Therefore, conductivity drops rather than increases as the desiccant saturates, rather than enhancing exothermic behavior.
