Photochemistry
Photochemistry is the part of chemistry that studies the various mechanisms of reactions that are triggered by the presence of light energy. It also helps to study the changes involved in a molecule that can undergo the absorption of radiation.

Chapter 6, Problem 6I.2E

(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The adsorption of a gas is described by the Langmuir isotherm with α=1.85 k Pk−1 at 25oC. The pressure at which the fractional surface coverage is 0.10 has to be calculated.

Concept introduction:

Adsorption: A molecule (adsorbate) that forms a bond to the surface (adsorbent).

Associative Adsorption: A gas molecule adsorbs without fragmentation.

Dissociative Adsorption: A gas molecule adsorbs and fragmentation occurs.

Langmuir adsorption: The isotherm is based on the characteristic assumptions that only monomolecular adsorption takes place, adsorption is localized and the heat of adsorption is independent.

Langmuir equation: p/V= p/Vm+ aVm

(b)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The adsorption of a gas is described by the Langmuir isotherm with α=1.85 k Pk−1 at 25oC. The pressure at which the fractional surface coverage is 0.90 has to be calculated.
