Abstract
We shall deal here with a Lattice Gas (LG) model and a model of Unified Gas-Adsorbate Layer (UGAL). These two models correspond to two alternative approaches in the statistical theory of equilibrium adsorbates (Flood 1967) and can be considered as mutually complementary ones. Which of them should be used depends on the adsorbate properties (ideal, weakly non-ideal, liquid, polycrystalline, localized, partially localized, delocalized), external conditions (isothermal, non-isothermal), mechanisms of elementary processes (adiabatic, non-adiabatic), etc.
