• B. Shape
• C. Surface roughness
• D. True density

Hint:

Which one of the following parameters of the finished product is NOT influenced by the selection of size reduction equipment?

Answer 1

The Correct Option is D

Step 1: Understanding the influence of size reduction equipment. - Size reduction equipment affects particle size, shape, porosity, and surface texture. - However, true density is an intrinsic property of a material and remains unchanged.

Step 2: Explanation of incorrect options. - (A) Porosity: Affected by particle size and packing arrangement. - (B) Shape: Different grinders and crushers produce different particle shapes. - (C) Surface roughness: Influenced by the type of mill or cutting mechanism.

Step 3: Selecting the correct option. Since true density remains constant regardless of size reduction equipment, the correct answer is (D) True density. \bigskip
