प्रश्न

Why are powdered substances more effective adsorbents than their crystalline forms?

Advertisements

उत्तर

Powdered substances are more effective adsorbents than their crystalline forms because when a substance is powdered, its surface area increases and physisorption is directly proportional to the surface area of the adsorbent

Assertion: Detergents with low CMC are more economical to use.

Reason: Cleansing action of detergents involves the formation of micelles. These are formed when the concentration of detergents becomes equal to CMC.
