Why does physisorption decrease with the increase of temperature?
(N/A) Physisorption is an exothermic process. According to Le Chatelier's principle,for an exothermic process,an increase in temperature shifts the equilibrium in the backward direction. Therefore,physisorption decreases as the temperature increases,and it occurs more readily at lower temperatures.
