Options
- AHeterogeneous catalysis
- BHomogeneous catalysis
- CEnzyme catalysed reaction
- DLiquid catalysed reaction
Correct answer
A. Heterogeneous catalysis
Step-by-step solution
Hydrogenation of vegetable oil in presence of finely dividednickel as catalyst. The reaction is heterogeneous catalyzes. Because the phase of the substrate and the catalyst is different.
