Analytical expressions are developed, based on a lattice statistics model incorporating the Bragg−Williams approximation and a random heterogeneous surface described by a uniform distribution of energies, for predicting the single-component isosteric heat of adsorption and differential adsorbed phase heat capacity as a function of temperature, surface coverage, lateral interactions, and adsorbent heterogeneity. A parametric study demonstrates that these four factors all affect the isosteric heat of adsorption but with different magnitudes at different conditions. The temperature dependence of the isosteric heat of adsorption is always related to, and accompanied by, the adsorbent surface heterogeneity. The differential adsorbed phase heat capacity has a very weak temperature dependence and is not directly affected by lateral interactions. The molar adsorbed phase heat capacity is in most cases higher than the gas phase heat capacity. The deviation between the molar adsorbed and gas phase heat capacities d...
