Unbound moisture content:
It is the moisture held by a material in excess of the equilibrium moisture content corresponding to saturation humidity.
Free Moisture content:-
It is the moisture held by a material in excess of the equilibrium moisture content.
So, the correct option is B.
It is the moisture held by a material in excess of the equilibrium moisture content corresponding to saturation humidity.
Free Moisture content:-
It is the moisture held by a material in excess of the equilibrium moisture content.
So, the correct option is B.

Option B is correct Answer.
Free moisture is an excess of equilibrium moisture that can inherently be removed from the solid.
Unbound moisture +bound moisture both are called free moisture.
Free moisture is an excess of equilibrium moisture that can inherently be removed from the solid.
Unbound moisture +bound moisture both are called free moisture.

Answer is A: Unbound moisture.
Unbound Moisture: It is the water held by a material in excess of the equilibrium moisture content corresponding to saturation in the surrounding atmosphere.
Free Moisture Content: It is the moisture content of a material that can be removed by drying under the given temperature and humidity. It may include both bound and Unbound moisture.
Unbound Moisture: It is the water held by a material in excess of the equilibrium moisture content corresponding to saturation in the surrounding atmosphere.
Free Moisture Content: It is the moisture content of a material that can be removed by drying under the given temperature and humidity. It may include both bound and Unbound moisture.
