Solution
The correct option is D1n According to freundlich adsorption isotherm, for adsorption of a gas on a solid, the extent of adsortion (xm) varies with P as given below: (xm)= k(P)1n
Where k is constant.
Taking log on either side log (xm)= log k+1n log P
It is analogous to y=c + mx which is equation of a straight line. ∴ Plot of log(xm)vslogP is linear with a slope of 1n.
