Adsorption is widely used in water purification processes to remove impurities.

In the Langmuir isotherm, the maximum coverage of adsorbate on the adsorbent is referred to as a monolayer.

The Langmuir isotherm assumes that adsorption occurs at specific sites, leading to a monolayer coverage of the adsorbate.

Chemisorption is an exothermic process, and increasing temperature generally decreases the extent of chemisorption.

Chemisorption typically decreases with an increase in temperature because it involves the formation of stronger chemical bonds, which are less favorable at higher thermal energies.

Chemisorption typically decreases with an increase in temperature because it involves the formation of stronger chemical bonds, which are less favorable at higher thermal energies.

Adsorption is a surface phenomenon where molecules adhere to the surface of a solid or liquid.

The rate of adsorption increases with the surface area of the solid, as more surface provides more sites for gas molecules to adhere.

Activated charcoal primarily adsorbs substances through physical adsorption due to its high surface area and porous structure.

Adsorption primarily involves physical attraction between the adsorbate and the surface of the adsorbent.

Adsorption of gases on solid surfaces primarily occurs due to Van der Waals forces, which are weak intermolecular forces that allow gas molecules to adhere to the surface.

Colloidal solutions are formed by the dispersion of fine particles in a medium, which is the process of dispersion.

Desorption energy is the energy required to separate an adsorbate from an adsorbent.

The maximum amount of solute that can be adsorbed on a surface is referred to as the adsorption capacity.

Adsorption is the process where a solid attracts and holds molecules of a liquid or gas on its surface.

The Tyndall effect is the scattering of light by colloidal particles, making the path of the light visible.

Chemisorption is characterized by the formation of a chemical bond between the adsorbate and the surface.

The color of the adsorbent does not affect the rate of adsorption, while temperature, surface area, and concentration do.

Adsorption is a surface phenomenon, as it occurs at the interface between phases.

Starch in water is a lyophilic colloid as it has a strong affinity for the solvent.

Physisorption involves weak Van der Waals forces, and the adsorption of water on silica gel is a classic example of this type of adsorption.

Dialysis is used to purify colloidal solutions by allowing the solvent and small solutes to pass through a semi-permeable membrane while retaining the colloidal particles.

Adsorption is a surface phenomenon as it occurs at the interface between phases.

The Freundlich adsorption isotherm is applicable to heterogeneous surfaces and describes how adsorption varies with pressure or concentration, indicating that it is not limited to monolayer adsorption.

The Freundlich adsorption isotherm describes heterogeneous adsorption on surfaces with varying affinities, making it suitable for real-world applications.
