To calculate the maximum achievable monolayer coverage of a gas on a solid surface, we can use the Langmuir isotherm equation: =  KP  /  1 + KP where  is the fractional coverage of the surface, K is the Langmuir constant  0.05 L/mol , and P is the pressure  1 atm . =  0.05 L/mol * 1 atm  /  1 + 0.05 L/mol * 1 atm  = 0.05 /  1 + 0.05  = 0.05 / 1.05  0.0476The maximum achievable monolayer coverage of the gas on the solid surface at 25C and 1 atmosphere is approximately 0.0476 or 4.76%.
