One gram of charcoal adsorbs 
of 
acetic acid to form a monolayer, and the molarity of acetic acid reduces to 
. Calculate surface area of charcoal adsorbed by each molecule of acetic acid, where the surface area of charcoal is 
.
A
B
C
D
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
B
of 
acetic acid contain 
moles of acetic acid
Molarity of acetic acid after adsorption
No. of molecules of acetic acid
Total surface area of 
of charcoal is 
Thus, surface area occupied by 1 molecule of acetic
