According to the Freundlich adsorption isotherm,which of the following is correct?

In the Freundlich isotherm $\frac{x}{m}=k p^{\frac{1}{n}}$ plot of $\log \frac{x}{m}$ vs $\log p$, the intercept is (where, $x$, $m$, $p$ and $k$ are mass of the gas, mass of adsorbent, pressure and constant which depend on the nature of the adsorbent, respectively)

Why are powdered substances more effective adsorbents than their crystalline forms?

To form a complete monolayer of acetic acid on $1 \ g$ of charcoal,$100 \ mL$ of $0.5 \ M$ acetic acid was used. Some of the acetic acid remained unadsorbed. To neutralize the unadsorbed acetic acid,$40 \ mL$ of $1 \ M$ $NaOH$ solution was required. If each molecule of acetic acid occupies $P \times 10^{-23} \ m^2$ surface area on charcoal,the value of $P$ is $\qquad$
[Use given data : Surface area of charcoal $= 1.5 \times 10^2 \ m^2 \ g^{-1}$; Avogadro's number $(N_A) = 6.0 \times 10^{23} \ mol^{-1}$]
