200. --------------. [BENTON, A. F., AND WHITE, T. A.] Sorption of Gases by Iron. Jour. Am. Chem. Soc., vol. 54, 1932, pp. 1820-1830; Chem. Abs., vol. 26, 1932, p. 3712. Sorption of N2, CO and H2 was studied on reduced Fe at temperatures 195°-400°. At the low temperatures sorption consists solely of physical adsorption. Activated adsorption takes place at higher temperatures. The rate of this process is greatest for CO and least for N2. With H2 at 110° and above, a probable solution of the gas occurs. A stepwise increase in the adsorption at low temperatures suggests the accumulation of definite layers of molecules. BERG, A. See abs. 1389. |
