According to the adsorption theory of catalysis, the speed of the reaction increases because
Absorption produces heat which increases the speed of the reaction
Adsorption lowers the activation energy of the reaction
The concentration of reactant molecules at the active centres of the catalyst becomes high due to adsorption.
In the process of adsorption, the activation energy of the molecules becomes large
Physical adsorption of a gas by a solid is generally _____________
Reversible

Stable
_____________arises due to the fact that the surface particles of the adsorbent are not in the same environment as the particles inside the bulk.
Absorption
Adsorption
desorption
Sorption
