This porous nature creates an extensive surface area within a small volume, allowing it to trap and hold a large number of molecules from gases, liquids, or dissolved substances. The pores vary in size, ranging from micropores to mesopores, which enable activated charcoal to adsorb a wide variety of contaminants effectively.
