Answer:

Explanation:

Characteristics of physical adsorption:

  • This type of adsorption is caused by physical forces.
  • Physisorption is a weak phenomenon.
  • This adsorption is a multi-layered process.
  • Physical adsorption is not specific and takes place all over the adsorbant.
  • Surface area, temperature, pressure, nature of adsorbate effects physisorption.
  • Energy for activation is low (20 – 40 kg/mol).

Characteristics of chemical adsorption:

  • This type of adsorption is caused by chemical forces.
  • It is a very strong process.
  • This type of adsorption is almost a single-layered phenomenon.
  • Chemisorption is highly specific and takes place at reaction centres on the adsorbant.
  • Surface area, temperature, nature of adsorbate effects chemisorption.
  • Energy of activation is very high 40 – 400 kJ/mol.
