For coagulating As2S3 colloidal solution which of the following will have the lowest coagulation value?
NaCl
KCl
BaCl2
AlCl3
Which of the following chemical reactions is homogeneous catalytic reaction?
N2(g) + 3H2(g) 2NH3(g)
2SO2(g) + O2(g) 2SO3 (g)
CO(g) + 3H2(g) CH4(g) + H2O (g)
2SO2(g) + O2(g)
According to the adsorption theory of catalysis the speed of the reaction increase because
the concentration of reactant molecules at the active centres of the catalyst becomes high due to adsorption
in the process of adsorption, the activation energy of the molecules becomes large
absorption produces heat which increases the speed of the reaction
adsorption lowers the activation energy of the reaction
A.
the concentration of reactant molecules at the active centres of the catalyst becomes high due to adsorption
The reactant gaseous molecules are adsorbed on the surface by these free bonds. This accelerates the rate of the reaction. The distribution of free bonds on the catalyst surface is not uniform. These are crowded at the 'peaks', 'cracks' and comers of the catalyst. The catalytic activity due to adsorption of reacting molecules is maximum at these spots. These are, therefore, referred to as the active centres.
Which of the following will have the highest coagulating power for As2S3 colloid?
PO
SO
Al3+
Na+
