According to Langmuir adsorption isotherm, the amount of gas adosobed at very high pressure

A

reaches a constant limiting value

B

goes on increasing with pressure

C

goes on decreasing with pressure

D

increases first and decrrease later with pressure

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

Langmuir adsorption isotherm deals in terms of chemical adsorption which fails at high pressure because the mas adsorbed reaches a constant value when the adsorbed suface is completely covered by a unimolecular layer of gases .
