A chemistry student is studying the adsorption of a gas on a solid surface using the Langmuir adsorption isotherm. The student knows that the maximum adsorption capacity (θ_max) of the surface is 0.5 mol/L and that the equilibrium constant (K) for the process is 0.02 L/mol. The student is asked to calculate the fraction of the surface covered by the adsorbate when the gas pressure is 2 atm at the temperature of the experiment.

A chemistry student is required to determine the cathodic and anodic Tafel slopes for a reaction occurring at an electrode surface. The current density at the cathodic surface is known to be 1.8 mA/cm² and the current density at the anodic surface is known to be 1.2 mA/cm². The current potential relationship is given by the Tafel equation:log (i) = log (i0) + β_c * (E-E_c) for cathodic reactionlog (i) = log (i0) + β_a * (E-E_a) for anodic reactionWhere i is the current density, i0 is the exchange current density, β_c and β_a are the cathodic and anodic Tafel slopes respectively, E is the elect
