For a linear plot of loglog\left(\dfrac{x}{m}\right)versusversuslogpinaFreundlichadsorptionisotherm,whichofthefollowingstatementsiscorrect?(in a Freundlich adsorption isotherm, which of the following statements is correct? (k and nn are constants)

Options

  1. AOnly 1n\dfrac{1}{n} appears as the slope.
  2. Blog (1n)\left(\dfrac{1}{n}\right) appears as the intercept.
  3. CBoth kand1nkand\dfrac{1}{n} appear in the slope term.
  4. D1n\dfrac{1}{n} appears as the intercept.

Correct answer

A. Only 1n\dfrac{1}{n} appears as the slope.

Step-by-step solution

According to Freundlich isotherm,


xm=k.p1n\dfrac{x}{m} = k . {p}^{\dfrac{1}{n}} {Taking log}

logxm=logk+1nlogPlog \dfrac{x}{m} = log k + \dfrac{1}{n}log P

y=c+mxy = c + mx (Straight line equation)

So, intercept is logklogk and slope is=1n= \dfrac{1}{\text{n}}.
