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.

An adsorption isotherm is a plot between:

1. The extent of adsorption \(({x \over m})\) against the pressure of gas (P) at constant V.
2. The extent of adsorption \(({x \over m})\) against the pressure of gas (P) at constant T.
3. The extent of absorption \(({x \over m})\) against the volume of gas (V) at constant P.
4. The extent of absorption \(({x \over m})\) against the pressure of gas (P) at constant T.
