Properties of the solid/gas and solid/liquid interfaces are dependent on the chemical structure and topology of the solid surface. The chemical potential of the adsorbate, whether vapour, gas, or liquid, is dependent upon the nature of the surface and the spatial variation of the adsorption potential energy. Generally the development of physical adsorption theory has tended to concentrate on homogeneous surfaces, although the subsequent applications have been made in a haphazard manner to a wide class of absorbents commonly termed heterogeneous since the details of surface heterogeneity are invariably unknown, the entire development and results derived therefrom are disputable.
