In the Dewar's method of separation of noble gases, the mixture of noble gases is kept in contact with coconut charcoal at \(173 \mathrm{~K}\) which one of the following gaseous mixtures is not adsorbed on to the charcoal?

  1. A \(\mathrm{Ar}, \mathrm{Kr}\)
  2. B \(\mathrm{Xe}, \mathrm{Ar}\)
  3. C \(\mathrm{He}, \mathrm{Ne}\)
  4. D \(\mathrm{Xe}, \mathrm{Kr}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(\mathrm{He}, \mathrm{Ne}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Only \(\mathrm{He}\) and \(\mathrm{Ne}\) are remained unadsorbed on the coconut charcoal at \(-100^{\circ} \mathrm{C}(173 \mathrm{~K})\) as their boiling points are less than \(-100^{\circ} \mathrm{C} .(\mathrm{He}=4 \mathrm{~K}, \mathrm{Ne}=27 \mathrm{~K})\)
