Q10 / 54 · JEE Advanced 2022 (Paper 1) · Chemistry
The correct option(s) related to adsorption processes is(are)
- Correct answerAChemisorption results in a unimolecular layer.
- BThe enthalpy change during physisorption is in the range of to .
- CChemisorption is an endothermic process.
- Correct answerDLowering the temperature favours physisorption processes.
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 .Gases with higher critical temperatures are readily adsorbed
(C) Chemisorption is an exothermic process with 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.
Hence, the correct answer is options: 'A', 'D'.
