( 4 pt ) Adsorption Isotherms Five vials are prepared with a volume of solution containing a solute concentration C i and 1 0 g

(4 pt) Adsorption Isotherms
Five vials are prepared with a volume of solution containing a solute concentration Ci
and 10g of activated carbon per liter of solution. Given the following values for Ci and
Ce(the equilibrium solution concentration), predict the linear isotherm partition
coefficient using linear isotherm. Compute Cs using the definition 'sorbed
concentration, kg of ikg of solid' and compare it with the predicted values.
(4 pt) Activated Carbon/Organic Solvent Partitioning
A solute is found to adsorb to activated carbon (AC) according to the Freundlich
isotherm with Kp=10Lg and in mgL and CS in {:mgg).50mL of a solution
containing 50mgL solute is added to a vial with 0.10g carbon. What will be the
equilibrium concentration?
(Hint: start from solute mass balance before and after AC is added)
