Correct Answer: Option C

Explanation

A good drying agent should be hygroscopic because this property means it readily absorbs moisture from the surrounding environment, making it effective at drying substances; while efflorescence is the opposite, where a substance releases water, making it unsuitable for drying purposes.                                                                              Examples of hygroscopic drying agents: Silica gel, calcium oxide, concentrated sulphuric acid.
