For a linear plot of log (x/m) versus log p in a Freundlich adsorption isotherm, which of the following statements is correct ? (k and n are constants)
Both k and 1/n appear in the slope term.
1/n appears as the intercept.
Only 1/n appears as the slope.
log (1/n) appears as the intercept.
As we learnt in
Logarithmic graph of Freundlich isotherm -
- wherein
The slope of the straight line gives the value of 1/n. The intercept on y-axis gives the value of log K.
If a graph is plotted between log and logP a staright line will be obtained.
Option 1)
Both k and 1/n appear in the slope term.
This option is incorrect.
Option 2)
1/n appears as the intercept.
This option is incorrect.
Option 3)
Only 1/n appears as the slope.
This option is correct.
Option 4)
log (1/n) appears as the intercept.
This option is incorrect.
