What do you understand by shape-selective catalysis? Why are zeolites good shape-selective catalysts?
Options
- AShape-selective catalysis involves using catalysts with specific geometries to control reaction pathways. Zeol
- BShape-selective catalysis involves using catalysts with random structures to control reaction pathways. Zeolit
- CShape-selective catalysis involves using catalysts with variable geometries to control reaction pathways. Zeol
- DShape-selective catalysis involves using catalysts with no defined geometry to control reaction pathways. Zeol
Correct answer
A. Shape-selective catalysis involves using catalysts with specific geometries to control reaction pathways. Zeol
Step-by-step solution
Correct Option is : (A) Shape-selective catalysis involves using catalysts with specific geometries to control reaction pathways. Zeolites have well-defined pores and channels.
