How to Calculate and Solve for Fraction of Surface Covered by Adsorbed | Mineral Processing
Last Updated on December 9, 2021
The image above represents fraction of surface covered by adsorbed.
To compute for fraction of surface covered by adsorbed, two essential parameters are needed and these parameters are Constant (K) and Gas Pressure (P).
The formula for calculating the fraction of surface covered by adsorbed:
θ = KP / 1 + KP
Where:
θ = Fraction of Surface Covered by Adsorbed
K = Constant
P = Gas Pressure
Let’s solve an example;
Find the fraction of surface covered by adsorbed, given that constant is 14 and gas pressure is 24.
This implies that;
K = Constant = 14
P = Gas Pressure = 24
θ = KP / 1 + KP
θ = (14)(24) / 1 + (14)(24)
θ = 336 / 1 + 336
θ = 336 / 337
θ = 0.99
Therefore, the fraction of surface covered by adsorbed is 0.99.
