Question

Which of the following curves is in accordance with Freundlich adsorption isotherm?

Options

MCQ

Solution


Explanation:

Freundlich, in 1909, gave an empirical relationship between the quantity of gas adsorbed by unit mass of solid adsorbent and pressure at a particular temperature.

xm=kp1n(n>1)

The adsorption varies directly. Where xm = mass of gas adsorbed per unit mass of adsorbent particle p = Pressure of gas at particular temperature.
