Which of these is incorrect:

Correct answer: C. Only lighter gases show physical adsorption at low temp.

  • A. Some times physical adsorption pass over to chemisorption on increasing the temperature of the system.
  • B. Oxygen is adsorbed on charcoal but on desorption it also releases CO and CO2
  • C. Only lighter gases show physical adsorption at low temp.
  • D. Activation energy of chemisorption > activation energy of physical adsorption

Explanation

All gases show the physical adsorption at low temperature.

About Solutions and Colloids

Solutions are described using molarity, molality, normality, mole fraction, percentage concentration and parts per million. Coverage also includes vapour-pressure lowering, boiling-point elevation, freezing-point depression and osmotic pressure, then distinguishes true solutions, colloids and suspensions by particle size, stability, light scattering and settling.
