The correct option(s) related to adsorption processes is(are)

The correct option(s) related to adsorption processes is(are)

Options

  1. AChemisorption results in a unimolecular layer.
  2. BThe enthalpy change during physisorption is in the range of 100100 to 140kJmol−1140kJ{mol}^{- 1}.
  3. CChemisorption is an endothermic process.
  4. DLowering the temperature favours physisorption processes.

Correct answer

A. Chemisorption results in a unimolecular layer.

Step-by-step solution

(A) First statement is correct as chemisorption results in a unimolecular layer and physisorption result in a multimolecular layer.

(B) Second statement is incorrect as enthalpy change during physisorption is of the range of (20−40)kJmol−1\left(20 - 40\right){kJmol}^{- 1}.Gases with higher critical temperatures are readily adsorbed

(C) Chemisorption is an exothermic process with (80−240)kJmol−1\left(80 - 240\right){kJmol}^{- 1} as the enthalpy of adsorption.

(D) Lowering the temperature results in increase in the extent of physisorption.It decreases with increase of temperature.

Hence (A) and (D) are correct.
