Right answer is (c) The heat of solution and the heat of vaporization or condensation of the solvent

The best explanation: The heat effects that cause temperatures to vary from point to point in a gas absorber are heat of vaporization or condensation of the solvent, the heat of solution, the loss of sensible heat from the fluids to internal or external coils and the exchange of sensible heat between the gas and liquid phases.
