Abstrakt: This theoretical investigation delves into the analysis of Reactive red 2 (RR-2) adsorption isotherms on metal hydroxide employing a sophisticated double-layer model characterized by dual-energy levels within the realm of physical adsorption phenomena. An examination of five distinct statistical physics frameworks was undertaken to elucidate the modeling and interpretation of equilibrium data. Expression for the physico-chemical parameters involved in the adsorption phenomena was derived based on statistical physics treatment. Fitting experimental adsorption isotherms (308-333 K) to a DAMTBS has revealed the number of anchored molecules per site, occupied receptor site density, and the number of adsorbed layers. The steric parameter n varies between 0.92 and 1.05. More importantly, it is evidenced that the adhesion mechanism of (RR-2) onto metal hydroxide as determined by the estimated adsorption energies (< 40 kJ/mol) supports a spontaneous and exothermic physisorption process. Thermodynamic potential functions such as entropy, Gibbs free energy, and internal energy have been computed based on the most suitable model. This research advances our physical understanding of how metal hydroxide captures dye molecules RR-2 through adsorption reaction for water depollution treatment.
