A catalyst______________________? A. Initiates a reactionB. Lowers the activation energy of reacting molecules C. Is capable of reacting with any one of the reactants D. Cannot be recovered chemically unchanged at the end of a chemical reaction

The rate controlling step for the heterogeneous irreversible catalytic reaction A(g) + B(g) → C(g) is the surface reaction of absorbed A with absorbed B to give adsorbed C. The rate expression for this reaction can then be written as…

For a heterogeneous catalytic reaction____________________? A. Free energy of activation is lowered in the presence of catalyst, which remains unchanged at the end of reaction B. A relatively small amount of catalyst can cause the conversion of large amount of…
