What is the significance of the factor 1/n in the Freundlich isotherm?

Options

  1. AIt is irrelevant.
  2. BIt determines the temperature.
  3. CIt explains the adsorption behavior.
  4. DIt specifies the pressure range.

Correct answer

C. It explains the adsorption behavior.

Step-by-step solution

The paragraph mentions that the factor 1/n in the Freundlich isotherm can have values between 0 and 1 (probable range 0.1 to 0.5) and it explains the behavior of adsorption in an approximate manner.
