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
