Which among the following is true for chemisorption?
Options
- AHeat of adsorption is in the range of 20-40 ~kJ ~mol ⁻¹
- BIt is multimolecular layered
- CVan der Waals forces are involved
- DIt is favored at high temperature up to certain limit
Correct answer
D. It is favored at high temperature up to certain limit
Step-by-step solution
Chemical adsorption - It is caused by chemical bond formation. - Heat of adsorption is high. - High temperature is favorable. It increases with increase of temperature. - It forms unimolecular layer.
