Equilibrium in an ideal adsorption layer during multiplet adsorption

The equilibrium in an ideal adsorption layer during adsorption of a mixture of substances whose molecules can occupy one or m elementary sites is examined. It is shown that the isotherm for any adsorbate in the mixture can be readily found if the isotherm is known for one of the adsorbed substances whose molecules occupy m elementary surface sites in the absence of other adsorbates. The form of the isotherm for multiplet adsorption depends on the distribution of the elementary sites on the surface.
