drying agent absorbs the water content while dehydrating agent lost the water content.
a dehydrating agent
yes it is a dehydrating agent but the problem is that phosphorous pentoxide not survives lastlong. Bcz it is very reative and unstable
Sodium chloride is not used in laboratory as a drying agent.
calcium hydride
Acts as the dehydrating agent (catalyst).
Concentrated sulphuric acid and Concentrated Phosporic acid are good dehydrating agents.It removes water from alcohols to convert it into corresponding alkenes.

A dehydrating agent is usually an acid which brings about loss of water molecule when used on an hydrated compound. A chelating agent is usually an electron donour (ligand) which forms a complex by coordinating with a metal using two or more donor groups of a single ligand.
dehydrating agent
yes, it is a drying agent
Diphosphorus pentoxide (P2O5), otherwise known as phosphoric anhydride is most commonly used as a dehydrating agent for various organic syntheses.
it can act as a catalyst, an acid, a dehydrating agent
It is used as a dehydrating agent
I think, it acts as a dehydrating agent because it has a great affinity for water...and in my opinion the reason behind it's great affinity is that water decomposes the acid...
Sodium chloride is not used in laboratory as a drying agent.
removing water with heat will help to preserve herbs and peppers. this can be done by gentil heating the herbs. Have a look at this video youtu.be/8B-7ER3OCIQ
