Micelle Formation: Explanation with CMC
Micelle is a cluster of amphiphilic molecules dispersed in a liquid. They form a colloidal suspension when surfactants tend to dissociate in water. They are [...]

When a surface of solid or liquid is exposed to a substance, molecules of that substance concentrate at that surface. The phenomenon of accumulation of [...]
Herbert Freundlich in 1909 gave an expression known as Freundlich adsorption isotherm, also called Freundlich equation. This equation is an empirical relationship between the quantity [...]
The graphical relationship between the amount of the substance being adsorbed per unit concentration of the adsorbate and the applied pressure is called adsorption isotherm. [...]
Soap and detergent are substances that, when dissolved in water possess the ability to remove dirt from the surfaces such as human body, textiles, and [...]
The confusion between adsorption and absorption is obvious – both sound very similar. However, the two are vastly different processes. Adsorption is the adherence of [...]
