Solution

The correct option is D $Δ H = - v e, Δ S = - v e$
Adsorption leads to a decrease in the residual forces on the surface of the adsorbent. This causes a decrease in the surface energy of the adsorbent. Therefore, adsorption is always exothermic and $Δ H$ is negative.
And for reaction to occur $Δ G$ should be negative so by equation $Δ G = Δ H - T Δ S$ , $Δ S$ should be negative.
