What is the result when ∆H becomes equal to T∆S in an adsorption process?
Options
- AEquilibrium is attained
- BThe process becomes endothermic
- CThe process becomes spontaneous
- DThe process becomes isothermal
Correct answer
A. Equilibrium is attained
Step-by-step solution
The paragraph states that as the adsorption proceeds, ∆H becomes less and less negative, ultimately ∆H becomes equal to T∆S, and equilibrium is attained.
