The change in enthalpy per unit weight of adsorbed gas when adsorbed on gas free or "outgassed" adsorbent to from a definite concentration of adsorbate is called its_____________________?

Correct answer: A. Integral heat of adsorption

  • A. Integral heat of adsorption
  • B. Heat of wetting
  • C. Differential heat of adsorption
  • D. Heat of normal condensation

Explanation

The integral heat of adsorption is the enthalpy change per unit mass of adsorbate for loading an initially outgassed adsorbent from zero to a specified concentration. Differential heat of adsorption instead refers to the heat for an infinitesimal change at a particular loading.
