A plot of log `(x/m)` against log P for the adsorption of a gas on a solid gives a straight a straight line with slope equal to :

A

k

B

log k

C

n

D

`(1)/(n)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

If we plot a graph between log `((x)/(m))` and log p, a straight line will be obtained. The slope of the line is equal to `(1)/(n)` and the intercept is equal to log k.

where, `(x)/(m)` = amount of adsorption
According to Freundlich adsorption isotherm
`(x)/(m)=kp^(1//n)`
Taking log of both sides,
`log.(x)/(m)= log k + (1)/(n) log p `
from y = zx + c
`z = (1)/(n)` (slope)
