separation process
1b) Ture performs adsorption experiments. In a tank he adds: 2 kg of adsorbent and 100 L of solution containing 3 g/L of naphthol. He knows that the adsorption process can be described by the Freundlich adsorption isotherm (q= KC^1/n). Where K and when constants, C is the concentration of naphthol in the liquid phase (g/L) and q is the concentration of naphthol on the adsorbent (g naphthol/g adsorbent). He has determined n to 3 and K to 0.1 g naphthol/g adsorbent. Calculate the equilibrium concentration in the solution in g naphthol/L and on the adsorbent in g naphthol/kg adsorbent.
