In an experiment, `200 mL` of `0.5M` oxalic acid is shaken with `10 g` of activated charcoal and filtered. The concentration of the filtrate is reduced to `0.4 M`. The amount of adsorption `(x//m)` is
(a) `0.9` b. `1.8` c. `0.18` d. `0.09`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Mass of oxalic acid adsorbed by `10g` . Charcoal
`=200xx10^(-3)(0.5-0.4)xx90=1.8g`
(`Mw` or oxalic acid `=90gmol^(-1)`)
The amount of adsorption
`(x)/(m)=(1.8)/(10)=0.18`
