Question

Extent of adsorption of adsorbate from the solution phase increases with a/an:

• A. Increase in the amount of adsorbate in the solution
• B. decrease in the surface area of adsorbent
• C. increase in the temperature of the solution
• D. decrease in theamount of adsorbate in the solution

Answer 1

The correct option is A Increase in the amount of adsorbate in the solution

As the amount of adsorbate in the solution increases, interactions of the adsorbate with the adsorbent increase which lead to an increase in extent of adsorption.
