Adsorption

  • Freundlich

    mx​=kp1/n (n>1),logmx​=logk+n1​logp
  • physisorption: weak, reversible, multilayer;chemisorption: strong, specific, monolayer

Catalysis

  • a catalyst changes the path (lower Ea​), not ΔH or K

Colloids

  • Hardy–Schulze rule

    coagulating power rises with the charge of the opposite ion: Al3+>Ba2+>Na+
  • gold number: smaller means a better protective colloid
