Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

What type of isotherm is represented by the Freundlich equation?
  • Step 1: Understand what an isotherm is. An isotherm is a curve that shows how a substance adsorbs onto a surface at a constant temperature.
  • Step 2: Learn about adsorption. Adsorption is when molecules stick to a surface.
  • Step 3: Know that there are different types of isotherms. These describe how different substances behave when they adsorb onto surfaces.
  • Step 4: Focus on the Freundlich equation. This equation is used to describe how substances adsorb onto surfaces that are not uniform (heterogeneous).
  • Step 5: Conclude that the Freundlich equation represents a type of adsorption isotherm specifically for surfaces that have different properties.
