Which of the following represents the Freundlich adsorption isotherms? (A) (B) (C) (D) Choose the correct answer from the options given below:
Options
- AA, C, D only
- BA, B only
- CB, C, D only
- DA, B, D only
Correct answer
D. A, B, D only
Step-by-step solution
The equation x m = KP 1 / n represents Freundlich adsorption isotherm. It is an empirical relationship between the amount of gas adsorbed by a given amount of solid adsorbent surface and pressure of the gas at a particular temperature. So, Freundlich adsorption isotherm equation is x m = KP 1 / n ⇒ log x m = logK + 1 n logP Extent of adsorption x m decreases with increase in temperature. With the help of the above two equation, following plots are obtained
