In Freundlich Adsorption isotherm, the value of is:

  1. A
    in case of chemisorption
  2. B
    between and in all cases
  3. C
    between and in all cases
  4. D
    in case of physical adsorption

Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

The Freundlich Adsorption Isotherm is given by:

The value of is the power to which the pressure is raised. Experimentally, it is found that typically ranges from 0 to 1.When , , meaning adsorption is independent of pressure.When , , meaning adsorption varies linearly with pressure.Shutterstock
