Definition :
4. Factor Effecting
Absorption :
1 Concentration Gradient
Greater the difference in
concentration, higher the rate of
absorption.
2 MolecularWeight
Lighter molecules are absorbed more
quickly compared to heavier ones.
3 Solubility
More soluble substances are
absorbed faster as they can easily
pass through the cell membranes.
4 Surface Area
Increased surface area enhances
absorption rate due to more contact
with the absorbing surface.
5. 5
ImportanceofAbsorption
inDifferentContexts:
Pharmaceuticals
Absorption determines the
bioavailability and efficacy of
drugs.
Nutrition
Absorption enables the body to obtain
essential nutrients from food.
Environment
Absorption affects the uptake of
pollutants by plants, animals,
and soil.
Science and Research
Absorption is crucial for studying and
analyzing chemical reactions and
processes.
6. ExamplesofAbsorption
inDailyLife:
Hydration
The process of drinking
water leading to
absorption in the body.
Ink Spreading
Observe how ink
spreads and is
absorbed by a porous
material like paper.
Dissolution
Sugar dissolving in hot
tea due to absorption
of water molecules.

Competition
Multiple substances may compete
for limited absorption sites.
Bioavailability
Not all substances can be efficiently
absorbed by the body.
PathologicalConditions
Diseases or disorders can impair the
absorption process.
ExternalFactors
Environmental conditions can affect the
absorption rate and efficiency.
