Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

What is the primary mechanism by which adsorption occurs on a solid surface?
  • Step 1: Understand that adsorption is when molecules stick to a surface.
  • Step 2: Know that there are two main types of adsorption: physical adsorption and chemical adsorption.
  • Step 3: Physical adsorption (physisorption) happens when molecules stick to a surface without forming strong bonds.
  • Step 4: Chemical adsorption (chemisorption) occurs when molecules form a strong chemical bond with the surface.
  • Step 5: Recognize that the primary mechanism for adsorption on a solid surface is through these interactions, especially chemisorption.
