Which of the following has the maximum contribution in the dry air? Correct Answer Nitrogen

Dry air is the mixture of a number of gases like nitrogen, oxygen, carbon dioxide, hydrogen, etc. In this mixture, nitrogen has the maximum contribution. Nitrogen is approximately 78.03 % by volume and 75.47 % by mass in this mixture.

In a laboratory test run, the rate of drying was found to be 0.5 × 10-3 kg/m2.s, when the moisture content reduced from 0.4 to 0.1 on dry basis. The critical moisture content of the material is 0.08 on a dry basis. A tray dryer is used to dry 100 kg (dry basis) of the same material under identical conditions. The surface area of the material is 0.04 m2/kg of dry solid. The time required (in seconds) to reduce the moisture content of the solids from 0.3 to 0.2 (dry basis) is
