Applying Freundlich adsorptin isotherm, ...

Applying Freundlich adsorptin isotherm, calculate the amount of acetic acid adsorbed by 1 kg of blood charcoal at `25^(@)C` from a 5% vinegar solution (mass/volume). Given that if the concentration is expressed in molarity (mol `dm^(-3)`), x/m is mass of the solute adsorbed per gram of adsorbent, then `k=0.160and n=2.32.`

Adsorption of a gas on a surface follows Freundlich adsorption isotherm. Plot of "log " (x)/(m) versus log P gives a straight line with slope equal to 0.5, then : ( (x)/(m) is the mass of the gas adsorbed per gram of adsorbent)

Graph between log x//m and log p is a straight line inclined at an angle of 45^@ . When pressure is 0.5 atm and 1n k = 0.693 , the amount of solute adsorbed per gram of adsorbent will be:

Plot of log against log P is a straight line inclined at an angle of 45^(@) . When the pressure is 0.5 atm and Freundlich parameter ,K is 10, the amount of solute adsorbed per gram of adsorbent will be : (log 5=0.6990 )

Plot of log x//m against log p is a straigh line inclined at an angle of 46^(@) . When the pressure is 0.5 atom and Freundlich parameter k is 10.0 , the amount of the solute adsorbed per gram of adsorbent will be (log 5=0.6990) :
