sir plz explain the second sentence of the statement within semicolon("")
Adsorption is a surface phenomenon: During the phenomenon of
adsorption the adsorbate molecules are held on the surface of the
adsorbent by weak or strong (co- valent bond) forces.
"Therefore heat is
liberated during adsorption.
It is further more clear from the fact that finely divided adsorbents are good
adsorbents, because free forces increase on subdivision."
