Explain the following terms with an example of each:
(i) Emulsification,
(ii) Chemisorption.
Answer:
(i) Emulsification. The process of making an emulsion in presence of emulsifying agent is called emulsification e.g., fats are emulsified by bile juice in our body and help in metabolism.
(ii) Chemisorption. When the force of attraction between adsorbent and adsorbate is similar to that of chemical bond it is called chemisorption e.g., N2 and H2 get adsorbed on ‘Fe’ in manufacture of NH3 by Haber’s Process.
