Assertion : The relation $\frac{x}{m} = k \cdot p^{1/n}$ is known as Freundlich adsorption isotherm,where $x$ is the mass of gas adsorbed by $m$ grams of adsorbent,$p$ is the equilibrium pressure,$k$ and $n$ are constants for a given system and temperature.
Reason : When several substances have the same value of $\frac{1}{n}$,the lines by which their adsorption isotherms can be represented will meet at a point.
Reason : When several substances have the same value of $\frac{1}{n}$,the lines by which their adsorption isotherms can be represented will meet at a point.
- AIf both Assertion and Reason are correct and the Reason is a correct explanation of the Assertion.
- BIf both Assertion and Reason are correct but Reason is not a correct explanation of the Assertion.
- CIf the Assertion is correct but Reason is incorrect.
- DIf both the Assertion and Reason are incorrect.

View SolutionAssertion : The enthalpy of physisorption is greater than chemisorption.
Reason : Molecules of adsorbate and adsorbent are held by van der Waal's forces in physisorption and by chemical bonds in chemisorption.

View SolutionThe correct statement$(s)$ pertaining to the adsorption of a gas on a solid surface is (are):
$(A)$ Adsorption is always exothermic.
$(B)$ Physisorption may transform into chemisorption at high temperature.
$(C)$ Physisorption increases with increasing temperature but chemisorption decreases with increasing temperature.
$(D)$ Chemisorption is more exothermic than physisorption,however it is very slow due to higher energy of activation.
