Make 0.05M CuSO4
pipette 50ml CuSO4
change to respective pH values using HCl
Add 2g of oven-dried banana peels

Plotting a Langmuir adsorption isotherm
We have,
$$\theta = \frac{Kp_\mathrm a}{1+Kp_\mathrm a}$$
where, the fractional coverage $\theta$ is defined as the number of sites occupied by adsorbate $A$ over the total number of sites. $p_\...

Desorption instead of adsorption from solution using activated charcoal
I was just trying to see the effect of concentration on adsorption in solutions, i.e. I was trying to verify the Freundlich isotherm. I used oxalic acid and a batch of homemade activated charcoal (...

Why we have mass of adsorbent in Freundlich equation?
In Freundlich equation why we have $m$ the mass of adsorbent. I mean it is surface chemistry and on the surface of adsorbent the adsorption takes place so why we have mass of adsorbent in that ...
