    Adsorption is always

    Select the set having correct statements pertaining to the adsorption of a gas on a solid surface (1) physisortion may transform into chemisorption at high temperature (2) chemisorption is more exothermic than physisortion , however it is very slow due to higher energy of activation (3) Adsorption is always exothermic (4) Physiosorption increase with increasing temperature but chemisorption decreases with increasing temperature

    Assertion :- The graphical representation of physical adsorption with temp is Reason :- This is weak adsorption & adsorption is exothermic process.
