Adsorption is

Assertion: In physisorption, adsorption increase with increases in temperature. Reason: Physisorpation is of exothermic nature.

The correct statements pertaining to the adsorption of a gas on a solid surface are (i) Adsorption is always exothermic (ii) Physisorption may transform into chemisorption at high temperature (iii) Physisorption increases with increasing temperature but chemisorotion decrease with increasing temperature (iv) Chemisorption is more exothermic than physisoption, however, it is very slow due to higher energy of activation

Assertion : In physisorption, adsorption decreases with increase in tempetrature. Reason : Lhysisorption is of eothermic nature.

A : In physical adsorption, heat of adsorption is low i.e., 20 - 40 kJ /mol. R : On increasing temperature, physical adsorption increases.
