← ScienceWhich consequence results when high humidity contaminates ionic silver-zeolite?
A)Excessive deliquescence causes structural collapse✓
B)Accelerated sublimation decreases performance
C)Increased hardness improves abrasion resistance
D)Enhanced dispersion increases catalytic activity
💡 Explanation
Excessive deliquescence leading to structural failure occurs because the silver-zeolite absorbs water through hygroscopic behavior. This results from strong ionic bonds attracting water molecules, therefore leading to deliquescence, rather than other phase transitions or mechanical property changes.
