A common example of heterogeneous catalysis is the synthesisof NH_(3)

1.	A common example of heterogeneous catalysis is the synthesisof NH_(3) N_(2)(g)+3H_(2)(g) overset(Fe) iff 2NH_(3)(g) In this example,
Answer» adsorption provides the activation energy for the reaction adsorption increase the CONCENTRATION of REACTANTS on the surface of the catalyst Catalyst increase the rate of forward reaction more than the rate of backward reaction. adsorption splits the molecular species into more REACTIVE atomic species. Solution :A catalyst increase the rate of forward and backward reaction to the same extent.
