Question
Question 10: VerticalSelect the options that would NOT be suitable for the following unedited sentence:The effect of pH on the adsorption in Cr(III) on natural bentonite was evaluated.“effect” should be revised to “affect”“of pH” should be revised to “by pH”“on the” should be revised to “from the”“in Cr(III)” should be revised to “of Cr(III)”
Solution
The options that would NOT be suitable for the following unedited sentence are:
-
“effect” should be revised to “affect”: This is not suitable because "effect" is the correct term in this context. "Affect" is a verb meaning to influence something, while "effect" is a noun meaning a result or an outcome, which is what is meant in this sentence.
-
“of pH” should be revised to “by pH”: This is not suitable because the phrase "of pH" is correct in this context. The sentence is talking about the effect that pH has on something, so "of pH" is the correct preposition to use.
-
“on the” should be revised to “from the”: This is not suitable because "on the" is the correct preposition in this context. The sentence is talking about the effect of pH on the adsorption on natural bentonite, so "on the" is the correct preposition to use.
-
“in Cr(III)” should be revised to “of Cr(III)”: This is suitable because "of Cr(III)" is the correct preposition in this context. The sentence is talking about the adsorption of Cr(III), so "of Cr(III)" is the correct preposition to use.
