The given graph/data I, II, III and IV represent general trends observed for different physisorption and chemisorption processes under mild conditions of temperature and pressure. Which of the following choice(s) about I, II, III and IV is (are) correct?
The correct choice is :

A

I is physisorption and II is chemisorption

B

I is physisorption and III is chemisorption

C

IV is chemisorption and II is chemisorption

D

IV is chemisorption and III is chemisorption

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Graph-I represents physisorption as in physisorption, adsorbents are bonded to adsorbate through weak van der Waal’s force.
Increasing temperature increases kinetic energy of adsorbed particles increasing the rate of desorption, hence amount of adsorption decreases.
Graph-III also represents physical adsorption as extent of adsorption increasing with pressure.
Graph-II represents chemisorption as it is simple activation energy diagram of a chemical reaction.
Graph-IV represents chemisorption as it represents the potential energy diagram for the formation of a typical covalent bond.
