← ScienceWhich outcome occurs when a molecular sieve made of zeolite adsorbs water vapor?
A)Selective gas separation enhancement✓
B)Framework amorphization occurs rapidly
C)Increased overall structural rigidity
D)Reduced thermal expansion coefficient
💡 Explanation
Selective gas separation enhancement occurs because water adsorption within zeolite pores via **physisorption** competitively hinders other molecules entering. Therefore, certain gases traverse more easily rather than get blocked, creating separation because adsorption favors water molecules.
