Solution

The correct option is D NH3>CO2>CH4
The gas which can be easily liquified can be easily adsorbed. Because of the presence of H bonding in NH3, it can be easily liquified.

Among the given molecules, the order in which a gas can be easily liquified is NH3>CO2>CH4.

So, the order of adsorption is NH3>CO2>CH4.

Hence, the correct answer is option C.
