In an adsorption expetiment, a graph between log (x/m) varuse log P was found to be linear with a slope of 45^(@). The intercept on the log (x/m) axis was found to be 0.3010. Calculate the amount of the gas adsorbed per gram of charcoal under a pressure of 0.5 atmosphere.

Answer»

Solution :According to Freundlich equation, `x/m =k P^(1//) or log ""(x)/(m)=log k+1/n log P`
`THEREFORE` Plot of `x/m` varsus log P is linear with SLOPE `=1/n` and INTERCEPT `=log k.` Thus,
`1/n = TNA theta = TAN 45^(@)=1 or n=1`
`log k =0.3010 or k= "Antilig" 0.3010=2`
At `P =0.5 atm, x/m =k P^(1//n)=2xx(0.5)^(1)=1.0`
