“How can we graphically represent the relationship between a substance’s concentration and an adsorbent’s ability to adsorb the substance?”

Adsorbents of different materials interact with different chemical differently. Sometimes their adsorption strength decreases with increasing concentration, sometimes it grows, and sometimes it stays the same. We can plot the relationship between substance concentration and adsorption strength on a Sorption Isotherms.
