Subject: WSN: enthalpy of adsorption
Dear WSN subscribers,
I have a question for anyone who has some understanding of the
thermodynamics and statistical mechanics of adsorption. Would you expect
the enthalpy change for the adsorption of a nonpolar organic vapor (e.g.
hexane) at the air-water interface to increase, decrease or be constant
when water freezes? Please give the reason(s) for your thinking.
Sincerely,
John Hoff
