Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To determine which type of adsorption, physisorption or chemisorption, has a higher enthalpy of adsorption, we can analyze the characteristics of both processes. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Definition of Physisorption and Chemisorption**: - **Physisorption**: This is a type of adsorption that occurs due to weak van der Waals forces. It is generally reversible and involves physical interactions between the adsorbate and the adsorbent. - **Chemisorption**: This involves the formation of chemical bonds between the adsorbate and the adsorbent. It is usually irreversible and involves stronger interactions. ...
