What role does adsorption play in heterogeneous catalysis?
Options
- AAdsorption has no role in heterogeneous catalysis.
- BAdsorption helps in the dispersion of catalysts in the reaction mixture.
- CAdsorption increases the rate of heterogeneous catalytic reactions by providing a surface for reactants to ads
- DAdsorption inhibits catalytic reactions by blocking active sites.
Correct answer
C. Adsorption increases the rate of heterogeneous catalytic reactions by providing a surface for reactants to ads
Step-by-step solution
Correct Option is : (C) Adsorption increases the rate of heterogeneous catalytic reactions by providing a surface for reactants to adsorb and react.
