Q#1 GATE CH 2017 NAT +2 marks -0 marks

In a batch adsorption process, 5 g of fresh adsorbent is used to treat 1 liter of an aqueous phenol solution. The initial phenol concentration is  liter. The equilibrium relation is given by

where  is the amount of phenol adsorbed in mg of phenol per gram of adsorbent; and  is the concentration of phenol in  in the aqueous solution.

When equilibrium is attained between the adsorbent and the solution, the concentration of phenol in the solution, rounded to 1 decimal place, is  mg/liter.
