Section C (Comprehensions)
Comprehension I
Whenever a mixture of gases is allowed to come in contact with a particular adsorbent under the same conditions, the relatively stronger adsorbate is adsorbed to greater extent irrespective of its amount present. For example, \( \mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O} \) is adsorbed on silica gel to greater extent than \( \mathrm{N}_{2} \) or \( \mathrm{O}_{2} \). This shows that some adsorbates are preferentially adsorbed. It is also observed that the preferentially adsorbable adsorbents can displace a weakly adsorbable adsorbate from the surface of an adsorbent.
Which of the following gas is adsorbable to the : maximum extent?
(a) \( \mathrm{He} \)
(b) \( \mathrm{Ne} \)
(c) \( \mathrm{Ar} \)
(d) \( \mathrm{Xe} \)
