Detailed Solution

Number of moles in 50ml of 1M oxalic acid is,

50 L100×1 M=0.05 moles

After adsorption, the moles of oxalic acid which left equal to,

50 L100×0.5 M=0.025 moles

Therefore the moles of oxalic acid adsorbed will be,

0.05 moles-0.025 moles=0.025 moles

If 0.025 moles of oxalic acid adsorbs on 0.5 g of charcoal, then the moles of oxalic acid adsorbed by 1 g of charcoal:

moles of oxalic acid=0.025 moles0.5 g×1 g=0.05 moles

The amount of oxalic acid will adsorbed per gram will be,

0.05 moles×126 g/mol=6.30 g
