Question
Why do physisorption and chemisorption behave differently with rise in temperature?
✓
Answer
Physisorption involves weak van der Waals forces which become weaker with rise of temperature. The chemisorption involves formation of chemical bonds involving activation energy. With increase of temperature, we reach the activated complex faster. Therefore, chemisorption process becomes faster.
