Question

In the study of adsorption of a solid why is it necessary for the solid to have a clean surface?

Answer 1

In the study of adsorption of a solid it is necessary for the solid to have a clean surface because as the following...
● The surface of a solid takes the most active part in adsorption.
● When we calculate the adsorption of a solid we calculate the highest adsorption or highest adsorption rate.
● If the surface is not clean then the active surface of the solid taking part in adsorption is lessened.
● If the rate of adsorption lessens then we will not find the highest rate of adsorption.
● This will cause errors in our calculation as we calculate the highest adsorption rate.
● In chemistry we have to calculate free of error otherwise it would cause a big error which would change the whole meaning of the calculation.
