Q.

For Freundlich adsorption isotherm, a plot of log xm at (y-axis) and log P (x-axis) gives a straight line. The intercept and slope for the line is 0.4771 and 2, respectively. The mass of gas adsorbed per gram of adsorbent if the initial pressure is 0.04 atm, is x×10-4 g(log 3=0.4771).

Determine the value of x.

Detailed Solution

According to Freundlich Isotherm it can be written as,

logxm=logK+1nlogP

According to the above Freundlich Isotherm equation, slope and intercept are 1n and log k respectively, hence 

1n=2 logk=0.4771 k=3

Determining the value of xm at 0.04 atm pressure, using another equation of Freundlich Isotherm:

xm=KP1n

Substitute the values to know the value of x.

xm=3×(0.04)2

xm=48x×10-4
