Which of the two, He and `Ne`, gets adsorbed on the surface of charcoal more readily and why?
Text Solution
AI Generated Solution
To determine which gas, Helium (He) or Neon (Ne), gets adsorbed on the surface of charcoal more readily, we need to consider the nature of adsorption and the properties of these gases.
### Step-by-Step Solution:
1. **Understanding Adsorption**: Adsorption is the process where molecules adhere to the surface of a solid. The extent of adsorption depends on the strength of the interaction between the adsorbate (the gas) and the adsorbent (the solid, in this case, charcoal).
2. **Van der Waals Forces**: The primary forces responsible for adsorption are Van der Waals forces. These forces are influenced by the size and polarizability of the gas molecules.

A container contains 1 litre, 2 M solution of cyclobutane in either. A piece of 3 kg charcoal is dipped in the solution. Molecules of cyclobutane get adsorbed on the surface of charcoal and form monolyer cyclobutane. The molarity of resulting solution decreases to 1 M. If surface area availble for adsorption on charcoal 2 cm^(2)//gm . Then find distance (in pm) between two adjacent carbon atoms in a cyclobutane molecule. (Assume: Shape of cyclobutane molecules as a perfect square.) [Use : N_(A) = 6xx10^(23) ]
The substance that adsorbed gets adsorbed on the surface of the soclid is called
Adsorption is a surface phenomenon and it differs feom adsorption which occurs throughout the body of the substance which absorbs. In physisorption, the attractive forces are mainly van der Waals' forces while in chemisorption actual bonding occurs between the particles of adsorbent and adsorbente. Generally, easily liquefying gases are adsorbed more easily on the surface of a solid as compared to teh gases whihc are liquefied with difficult. Adsorption increases with the increases in pressure and decreases as the temperature is increases. The ease with which the gases H_(2),CH_(4),CO_(2)and NH_(3) are adsorbed on the surface of charcoal is :
