PLZ HELP WITH THE ADSORPTION PROCESS

A packed column is used to remove an organic contaminant (A) from an aqueous solution using adsorption onto activated carbon. Dat has been captured for the solid concentration (mass of contaminant adsorbed per mass of activated carbon) as a function of the concentration of the contaminant in solution. 5 Acolleague is helpingyou ansess the data and has suggested using the Langmuir adsorptionmodel to analyee them. She has lifearized the model, plotted the data, and obtained a slope and intercept. She leaves you the fallowing note before leaving on vacation " plotted the data (U/CA vs. 1/a) and got a line 1/CAm(1/q)+b with m=4.6875 and b=16.382. The data fit the line really weil. Heres the Langmuir model - loomt remember how to get the parameters from the slope and intercept:" q=K+CA40CA Model Parameters What are the values of K and qo corresponding to 1/CA=m(1/q)+b with m=4.6875 and b=18.382 ? q0=K=(kgA/kg)(kgA//m3 Using the values of K and qo determined above, solve for the concentration in the water and the concentration on the carbon when 25.0m3 of a feed solution containing the contaminant at a concentration of 0.420kg/m3 is contacted with 25.0kg of fresh, clean, contaminant-free carbon. What is the fraction (f) of the contaminant removed from solution in the batch process? q=CA=f=(kgA)/kg(kgA)/m3
