In an air conditioning system, moisture is removed from the air by what means?

Aseparators
Bcooling coils
Cducted traps
Dfilters
AI Explanation

The correct answer is B) cooling coils. In an air conditioning system, moisture is removed from the air by the cooling coils. As the warm, humid air passes over the cold coils, the moisture in the air condenses on the coils, effectively dehumidifying the air. This condensed moisture is then drained away, removing the moisture from the system. The other options are incorrect because: A) Separators are not primarily used for moisture removal in air conditioning systems. C) Ducted traps are not a common method for moisture removal in air conditioning. D) Filters remove particulates from the air, but do not directly remove moisture.
