Adsorption is the tendency of accumulation of molecular species at the surface of solid or liquid. Depending upon the nature of bonds or forces of attraction between adsorbate and adsorbent. It is classified between physisorption and chemisorption.
Which of the following gases is adsorbed most by activated charcoal?

A

`CO_(2)`

B

`N_(2)`

C

`CH_(4)`

D

`H_(2)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
`CO_(2)` is an easily liquefied easily, hence it is adsorbed most by charcoal.
