Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The derivation of the equation, $\theta =\frac{K\cdot \left[\text{gas}\right]}{K\cdot \left[\text{gas}\right]+1}$ from the equation, $\theta =\frac{k_{\text{ads}}\cdot \left[\text{gas}\right]}{k_{\text{ads}}\cdot \left[\text{gas}\right]+k_{\text{des}}}$ is to be stated.

Concept introduction:

The isotherm model that describes the adsorption process, if an adsorbate acts as an ideal gas at the isothermal situation is known as Langmuir adsorption isotherm model. In the given isothermal situation, the partial pressure of the adsorbate is related to the volume of the adsorbate which is adsorbed on the solid adsorbent.
