Name the two groups into which phenomenon of catalysis can be divided. Give an example of each groups with the chemical equation involved.

Answer»

Solution :CATALYSIS can be DIVIDED into :
(a) Homogeneous catalysis
(b) HETEROGENEOUS catalysis
In homogeneous catalysis the catalysis exist in the same PHASE as the reacting SUBSTANCES .
`2SO_2(g) + O_(2)(g) overset(NO_((g)))(rarr)2SO_3(g)`
Heterogeneous catalysis involves the catalysis in different phase than that of the reactants.
`2HI(g) overset("Gold"(s))(rarr)H_2(g) + I_2(g)`.
