Question

what is adsorption ​

Answer 1

Adsorption is the adhesion of atoms, ions, or molecules from a gas, liquid, or dissolved solid to a surface. This process creates a film of the adsorbate on the surface of the adsorbent. They are of two types: Physiosorption and Chemisorption, e.g., oxygen molecules (red) adsorbed on a bimetallic surface of platinum (purple) and cobalt (green).

Answer 2

Answer:

⏩Adsorption is the adhesion of atoms, ions or molecules from a gas, liquid or dissolved solid to a surface. This process creates a film of the adsorbate on the surface of the adsorbent. This process differs from absorption, in which a fluid is dissolved by or permeates a liquid or solid, respectively. ⏪
