Chemistry Question on Surface Chemistry

In Freundlich Adsorption isotherm, the value of 1/n1/n is :

A

11 in case of physical adsorption

B

11 in case of chemisorption

C

between 00 and 11 in all cases

D

between 22 and 44 in all cases

Answer

between 00 and 11 in all cases

Explanation

Solution

In Freundlich adsorption isotherm,
xm=kp1/n\frac{x}{m} = k p^{1/n} the value of nn is always greater than 11.
So, the value of 1/n1/n lies between 00 and 11 in all cases.
