Question
\[\ce{H2}\] gas is adsorbed on activated charcoal to a very little extent in comparison to easily liquefiable gases due to:
(i) very strong van der Waal’s interaction.
(ii) very weak van der Waals forces.
(iii) very low critical temperature.
(iv) very high critical temperature.
Solution
(ii) very weak van der Waals forces.
(iii) very low critical temperature.
Explanation:
Due to weak van der Waals forces and very low critical temperature, \[\ce{H2}\] is adsorbed to a limited extent.
