Q3c
The reagents commonly used for drying ammonia gas are:
1. Calcium oxide (CaO), also known as quicklime
2. Sodium hydroxide (NaOH)
3. Calcium chloride (CaCl2)
4. Phosphorus pentoxide (P2O5)
5. Silica gel
These reagents absorb or react with water vapor, removing moisture from the ammonia gas and drying it.
Note: The choice of reagent depends on the specific application, purity requirements, and equipment used.
