Which is correct in case of van der Waal's adsorption?
- AHigh temperature, low pressure
- Correct answerBLow temperature, high pressure
- CLow temperature, low pressure
- DHigh temperature, high pressure
Solution
Physical or van der Waal's adsorption is more pronounced at low temperature and high pressure as it is an exothermic process so low temperature and high pressure favours it.
Hence, the correct answer is option: 'B'.
