Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Definition of Chemisorption**: - Chemisorption is a type of adsorption that involves a chemical reaction between the adsorbate (the substance being adsorbed) and the adsorbent (the surface on which adsorption occurs). This process leads to the formation of new chemical bonds. 2. **Characteristic 1**: - **Chemical Bond Formation**: - Chemisorption occurs due to the formation of strong chemical bonds between the adsorbate and the adsorbent. This distinguishes it from physisorption, which involves weaker van der Waals forces. ...
