Q1:

The correlation often employed to correlate adsorption data for protein is (where Ymax is the maximum amount of solute adsorbed per mass of adsorbent, X is the mass fraction of solute in the diluent phase in solute-free basis, KL is a constant and Y is the equilibrium value of the mass of solute adsorbed per mass of adsorbent)

A Y = YmaxX/(KL+X)

B YYmax/(KL+X)

C YYmaxX/KL

D Y = YmaxX/ (KL+X)

ANS:A - Y = YmaxX/(KL+X)

Very helpful question.
