Statistical Thermodynamics and Adsorption

Statistical Thermodynamics of Lattice Gas Models of Multisite Adsorption

The lattice models naturally arise in different fields of physics, chemistry and other sciences. First, it is physics of the solid state and physicochemistry of the surface. Among the many well-known lattice models the magnetic, alloys, liquid mixture, adsorption models are usually mentioned. The lattice models can be both classical and quantum. In this chapter only the classical lattice models...

Thermodynamics and Statistical Mechanics

The field of thermodynamics is easiest to understand in the context of Newtonian mechanics. Newtonian mechanics describes the effect of forces on objects. Thermodynamics describes the effect of heat transfer on objects. When heat is transferred,the temperature of an object changes.Temperature and heat are also intimately related to energy. A hot gas in a piston has a high pressure and it can do...

16 Insight Into Adsorption Thermodynamics

Saving the environment to save the Earth and to make the future of mankind safe is the need of the hour. Over the past several decades, the exponential population and social civilization change, affluent lifestyles and resources use, and continuing progress of the industrial and technologies has been accompanied by a sharp modernization and metropolitan growth. The world is reaching new horizon...

thermodynamics ofcu2+adsorption on soilhumin

the adsorption thermodynamic characteristic of cu2+ from aqueous solution onto humin andalso humic acid from a typical black soil in northeast china were examined at three different temperatures(298, 318 and 338 k) by batch isotherm experiments. results showed that humin was structurally differentfrom humic acid. the increase of temperature had a positive effect on the adsorption process. freun...
