Refers to the thermal effect generated by the adsorption process. Can the heat of adsorption measure the degree of adsorption? The greater the heat of adsorption, the stronger the adsorption. physical adsorption has no selectivity, low heat of adsorption, unstable adsorption and easy desorption; chemical adsorption is the opposite. See physical adsorption and chemical adsorption.
