Zeolites are shape selective structures because of
Options
- Ahigh adsorption capacity
- Bthree dimensional network of atoms
- Cpresence of aluminosilicates
- Dhoney comb like structure
Correct answer
D. honey comb like structure
Step-by-step solution
The reactions taking place in zeolites depend upon the size and shape of the reactant and product molecules and upon the pores and cavities of the zeolities. Hence, they are shape-selective catalyst.
