Question:
reversible nature of physical adsoption
Answer:
Physical adsorption is not specific in nature, chemical adsorption is highly specific.
Both physical and chemical adsorption depends on the nature of the adsorbate.
Physical adsorption is reversible, but chemical adsorption is not. This is because there are no chemical bonds formed between the surface and the adsorbate. Thus, the binding is easily reversible.
