NEETChemistrySurface Chemistry
What may occur if different molecules are adsorbed side by side on the catalyst's surface?
Options
- ADesorption of reaction products
- BFormation of new molecules through a reaction
- CDiffusion of reaction products away from the surface
- DDecomposition of the catalyst
Correct answer
B. Formation of new molecules through a reaction
Step-by-step solution
The paragraph suggests that if different molecules are adsorbed side by side on the catalyst's surface, they may react with each other resulting in the formation of new molecules.
