Answer:
Adsorption arises due to the fact
that the surface particles of the adsorbent are not in the same environment as
the particles inside the bulk. In side the adsorbent all the forces acting
between the particles are mutually balanced but on the surface the particles
are not surrounded by atoms or molecules of their kind on all sides and hence they
possess unbalanced or residual attractive forces. These forces are responsible
for attracting the adsorb ate particles on its surface.
