Question
Representative properties of small-pore silica gel are: dp=24 oA , ϵp=0.47, ρp=1.09 g/cm3 , and Sg=800 m2 /g. (a) Are these values reasonably consistent? (b) If the adsorption capacity for water vapor at 25oC and 6 mmHg partial pressure is 18% by weight, what fraction of a monolayer is adsorbed?
