Solution

The correct option is B A,B,C

A. Freundlich isotherm doesn't hold good at high pressures as it seems to attain saturation at high pressure.



B. Vander Waal's forces exit in case of physiosorption; in chemisorption chemical bonds are formed.

C. Adsorption is an exothermic process, as adsorption process is followed by release of heat.

D. This statement is true. Since adsorption is an exothermic process, so Le chatelier's principle explains this property.
