Incorrect statement regarding adsorption is:
1. | Adsorption is a surface phenomenon of accumulation of molecules of a substance at the surface rather than in the bulk of a solid or liquid. |
2. | Adsorption involves penetration through the surface to the bulk of the solid or liquid. |
3. | The substance that gets adsorbed is called the ‘adsorbate’ and the substance on whose surface the adsorption takes place is called the ‘adsorbent’. |
4. | During absorption, the substance gets uniformly distributed throughout the bulk of the solid or liquid. |
