It is not specific in nature.$2$. It is highly specific in nature.$3$. It is reversible in nature.$3$. It is irreversible in nature.$4$. It depends on the nature of gas; easily liquefiable gases are adsorbed readily.$4$. It depends on the nature of gas; gases that react with the adsorbent show chemisorption.$5$. Enthalpy of adsorption is low $(20-40 \ kJ \ mol^{-1})$.$5$. Enthalpy of adsorption is high $(80-240 \ kJ \ mol^{-1})$.$6$. Low temperature is favourable; it decreases with an increase in temperature.$6$. High temperature is often favourable; it increases with an increase in temperature.$7$.
