The Langmuir adsorption isotherm assumes that:
  1. Adsorption occurs on a surface with infinite sites
  2. Adsorption sites are equivalent
  3. Adsorption is a multilayer process
  4. Adsorption is independent of pressure

Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

The Langmuir adsorption isotherm assumes that:
Correct Answer: Adsorption sites are equivalent and the process is monolayer.
  • Step 1: Understand that the Langmuir adsorption isotherm is a model used to describe how molecules stick to a surface.
  • Step 2: Know that it assumes all adsorption sites on the surface are the same, meaning they have equal ability to hold molecules.
  • Step 3: Recognize that it also assumes that only one layer of molecules can stick to the surface, which is called a monolayer.
  • Step 4: Remember that this model does not allow for multiple layers of molecules to form on top of each other.
