Adsorption isotherms interpretation from "summary" of Physical Chemistry by Robert G. Mortimer

In interpreting adsorption isotherms, it is important to first understand the different types of isotherms that can be observed. The shape of an adsorption isotherm can provide valuable information about the nature of the adsorption process taking place on the surface of the adsorbent. For example, a Type I isotherm typically indicates monolayer adsorption, where a single layer of adsorbate molecules forms on the surface of the adsorbent. This type of isotherm is characterized by a steep increase in adsorption at low pressures, followed by a plateau as the surface becomes fully covered by adsorbate molecules. On the other hand, a Type II isotherm suggests multilayer adsorption, where adsorbate molecules form multiple layers on the surface of the adsorbent. This type of isotherm exhibits a gradual increase in adsorption...
