Consider the adsorption isotherm given below and interpret the variation in the extent of adsorption `(x/m)` when
a. Temperature increased at constant pressure.
b. Pressure increases at constant temperature.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

(i) The extent of adsorption decrreases when temperature increases because adsorption is of exothermic nature.
(ii) With the increase in pressure, the extent of adsorption increases.
