Abstract
Using the kinetic form of the Monte Carlo (MC) simulation method, a co mparison has been made between the results that predict the phenomenol ogical equations for adsorption kinetics and MC experiments in systems with and without lateral interactions on homogeneous and heterogeneou s surfaces with random topography and varying degrees of surface heter ogeneity. A very good correspondence exists between the theoretical re sults and those obtained from the MC experiments.
