The correct statement regarding chemisorption is

The correct statement regarding chemisorption is
  1. It is a multilayered adsorption
  2. The process is reversible in nature
  3. The process is not specific in nature
  4. Enthalpy of adsorption is in the range of 80-240 kJ $\mathrm{mol}^{-1}$

Solution

Chemisorption: (i) It is highly specific in nature. (ii) It is irreversible (iii) It result into unimolecular layer. (iv) Enthalpy of adsorption is high ( $80-240 \mathrm{~K}$ ) (v) It is caused by chemical bond formation.
