title: Adsorption from a one-dimensional lattice gas and the Brunauer-Emmett-Teller equation.
abstract: An exact treatment of adsorption from a one-dimensional lattice gas is used to eliminate and correct a well-known inconsistency in the Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (B.E.T.) equation-namely, Gibbs excess adsorption is not taken into account and the Gibbs integral diverges at the transition point. However, neither model should be considered realistic for experimental adsorption systems.
