Why does physisorption decrease with the increase of temperature ?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`underset("(Adsorbate) Adsorbent")("Gas"+"Solid"overset("Adsorption")underset("Desorption")hArr)"Gas/solid"+"Heat"`
Physisorption is an exothermic process therefore it is favoured at low temperature with increase in temperature desorption takes place.
