Why do physisorption and chemisorption

Question:

Why do physisorption and chemisorption behave differently with rising in temperature?

Solution:

In physisorption, with an increase in temperature, this bond between adsorbent and adsorbate weaker and the amount of adsorbate decrease whereas in chemisorption

an amount of activation energy required for the formation of a bond between adsorbent and adsorbate which is achieved by increasing the temperature.
