How to Calculate and Solve for Fraction of Surface Covered by Adsorbed | Mineral Processing

The image above represents fraction of surface covered by adsorbed. To calculate fraction of surface covered by adsorbed, two essential parameters are needed and these parameters are Constant (K) and Gas Pressure (P).

The formula for calculating the fraction of surface covered by adsorbed:

θ = KP / 1 + KP

Where:

θ = Fraction of Surface Covered by Adsorbed
K = Constant
P = Gas Pressure

Let’s solve an example;
Find the fraction of surface covered by adsorbed, given that constant is 14 and gas pressure is 24.

This implies that;

K = Constant = 14
P = Gas Pressure = 24

θ = KP / 1 + KP
θ = (14)(24) / 1 + (14)(24)
That is, θ = 336 / 1 + 336
θ = 336 / 337
θ = 0.99

Therefore, the fraction of surface covered by adsorbed is 0.99.
