  • question_answer
    Which among the following statements are correct with respect to adsorption of gases on a solid?
    (i) The extent of adsorption is equal to \[k{{p}^{n}}\]according to Freundlich isotherm.
    (ii) The extent of adsorption is equal to\[k{{p}^{1/n}}\]according to Freundlich isotherm.
    (iii) The extent of adsorption is equal to \[(1+bp)/ap\] according to Langmuir isotherm.
    (iv) The extent of adsorption is equal to \[ap/(1+bp)\] according to Langmuir isotherm.

    A)  (i) and (iii) 

    B)  (i) and (iv)

    C)  (ii) and (iii)     

    D)  (ii) and (iv)

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    [d]: Extent of adsorption,\[\frac{x}{m}=k{{p}^{l/n}}\] (Freundlich adsorption isotherm) The amount of gas adsorbed does not increase as rapidly as the pressure. Extent of adsorption, \[\frac{x}{m}=\frac{ap}{(1+bp)}\] (Langmuir adsorption isotherm) where k, a, b are constants and p is a pressure.
