AI Explanation

The correct answer is D) The vapors produced in section "G" are condensed and the non-condensable gases are removed. This is correct because in the section labeled "F" of the device shown in the illustration, the vapors produced in the previous section (G) are condensed, and the non-condensable gases are removed. This is a critical step in the overall process to ensure efficient operation and prevent the buildup of non-condensable gases, which can impair the performance of the device. The other options are incorrect because they do not accurately describe the function of section "F" as shown in the illustration. Option A refers to a different part of the device, option B describes the function of section "I," and option C describes the function of a different component.
