← ScienceWhich outcome results when a desiccant breaches its packaging?
A)Increased non-polar molecule adsorption increases
B)Water molecules physisorption capacity decreases
C)Hydroxyl bond hydrolysis reaction occurs quickly
D)Capillary condensation reduces the efficacy✓
💡 Explanation
Breaching desiccant packaging enables increased capillary condensation internally, because water vapor pressure raises within pores. Therefore, adsorption capacity quickly declines rather than increasing, because saturation occurs once the internal pore space reaches a certain size.
