The accumulation of molecualr species at the surface rather than in the bulk of a solid or liquid is termed adsorption. What is asorption isotherm?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A plot between the amount of gas absorbed per gram of absorbent (x/m) and the pressur of the gas at constant temperature is called Adsorption isotherm.
