The adsorption of a gas on a solid surface follows the Freundlich adsorption isotherm. At $T(K)$,the gas pressure is $2 \ atm$. What is the value of $\frac{x}{m}$? (Given: $n=2$ and $k=$ constant)

The correct statement$(s)$ pertaining to the adsorption of a gas on a solid surface is (are):
$(A)$ Adsorption is always exothermic.
$(B)$ Physisorption may transform into chemisorption at high temperature.
$(C)$ Physisorption increases with increasing temperature but chemisorption decreases with increasing temperature.
$(D)$ Chemisorption is more exothermic than physisorption,however it is very slow due to higher energy of activation.
