Question

By which other name the adsorption of gases on the solid surface is known? Select the proper choice from the given choices.(A) Evaporation (B) Surface tension(C) Condensation (D) Sorption

Answer 1

Answer

• surface tension

Answer 2

Answer:

Adsorption of gases on the solid surface is known as Sorption.

Explanation:

Adsorption is a process in which a substance builds up on a surface in increasing concentrations of specific molecular species. When it comes to hydrogen, nitrates, and oxygen, activated charcoal is where these gases adsorb.

We must also keep in mind that adsorption and absorption are two distinct processes. The mechanisms used in the two procedures are completely different.

There are two components necessary for the adsorption process,

• Adsorbate: A material that adheres to another substance's surface. for instance, the gases H2, N2, and O2.
• Adsorbate adsorbs on the surface of a substance known as an adsorbent. Charcoal, silica gel, and alumina are a few examples.

Types of Adsorption:

1. Physical adsorption
2. Chemical adsorption
