This model even explains the effect of pressure; i.e., at these conditions the adsorbate's partial pressure is related to its volume V adsorbed onto a solid adsorbent. The adsorbent, as indicated in the figure, is assumed to be an ideal solid surface composed of a series of distinct sites capable of binding the adsorbate.
Binding curves showing the characteristically sigmoidal curves generated by using the Hill equation to model cooperative binding. Each curve corresponds to a different Hill coefficient, labeled to the curve's right. The vertical axis displays the proportion of the total number of receptors that have been bound by a ligand.
The Langmuir model of adsorption [2] assumes . The maximum coverage is one adsorbate molecule per substrate site. Independent and equivalent adsorption sites. This model is the simplest useful approximation that still retains the dependence of the adsorption rate on the coverage, and in the simplest case, precursor states are not considered.
The langmuir is defined by multiplying the pressure of the gas by the time of exposure. One langmuir corresponds to an exposure of 10 −6 Torr during one second. [1] [2] For example, exposing a surface to a gas pressure of 10 −8 Torr for 100 seconds corresponds to 1 L.
While the Langmuir model assumes that the energy of adsorption remains constant with surface occupancy, the Freundlich equation is derived with the assumption that the heat of adsorption continually decrease as the binding sites are occupied. [16] The choice of the model based on best fitting of the data is a common misconception. [15]

An 8-year-old boy with Down syndrome became a hero after he alerted his 14-year-old sister of a fire in their Colorado home, helping them get out on time before it was engulfed in flames.
The reaction order is 1 with respect to B and −1 with respect to A. Reactant A inhibits the reaction at all concentrations. The following reactions follow a Langmuir–Hinshelwood mechanism: [4] 2 CO + O 2 → 2 CO 2 on a platinum catalyst. CO + 2H 2 → CH 3 OH on a ZnO catalyst. C 2 H 4 + H 2 → C 2 H 6 on a copper catalyst. N 2 O + H 2 ...
