Pick out the wrong statement?

A. Swenson-Walker crystalliser is a batch crystalliser
B. Super saturation of the solution is the driving potential for a crystal growth
C. The liquor left after the removal of crystals from a solution is called mother liquor
D. The first stage of crystal formation is called nucleation

Pick out the wrong statement ?

A. Superheated steam is preferably not used for process heating because of its low heat transfer film co-efficient
B. In a shell and tube heat exchanger, the shell pressure drop is maximum for orifice baffles
C. S.I. unit of fouling factor is Watt/m2.°K
D. Longitudinal fins are used in extended surface heat exchangers, when the direction of fluid flow is parallel to the axis of the tube

In a gas-liquid shell and tube heat exchanger, the_________________?

A. Presence of a non-condensable gas decreases the condensing film co-efficient
B. Gases under high pressure are routed through the tube side, because high pressure gases are
corrosive in nature
C. Gases to be heated/cooled is normally routed through the shell side, because the corrosion
caused by the cooling water or steam condensate remain localised to the tubes
D. All A, B. & C.
