उत्तर
There are various factors that affect the rate of adsorption of a gas on a solid surface.
- Nature of the gas: Easily liquefiable gases such as NH3, HCl, etc., are adsorbed to a great extent in comparison to gases such as H2, O2, etc. This is because Van der Waal’s forces are stronger in easily liquefiable gases.
- Surface area of the solid: The greater the surface area of the adsorbent, the greater is the adsorption of a gas on the solid surface.
- Effect of pressure: Adsorption is a reversible process and is accompanied by a decrease in pressure. Therefore, adsorption increases with an increase in pressure.
- Effect of temperature: Adsorption is an exothermic process. Thus, in accordance with Le-Chatelier’s principle, the magnitude of adsorption decreases with an increase in temperature.

What is the role of diffusion in heterogenous catalysis?
Assertion: Detergents with low CMC are more economical to use.
Reason: Cleansing action of detergents involves the formation of micelles. These are formed when the concentration of detergents becomes equal to CMC.
