What are homogenous catalyst? Give few examples.
When a catalyst mixes homogeneously with the reactants and forms a single phase, the catalyst is said to be homogeneous and this type of catalysis is called homogeneous catalysis. Some more examples of homogeneous catalysis are: SO2 is oxidized to SO2 in the presence of nitric oxide (NO) as catalyst. Oxidization of CO by O2 in the presence of NO as catalyst. Preparation of diethyl ether from ethyl alcohol using conc. H2SO4 as catalyst Hydrolysis of esters using H2SO4 as catalyst Hydrolysis of sucrose in the presence of dilute sulphuric acid. Mechanism of homogeneous catalysis As pointed out earlier, the catalyst combines with one of the reactant to form some intermediate compound. The intermediate compounds being unstable decompose or combine with each other reacting species to regenerate the catalyst along with the formation of final products. Let us understand the catalytic action of NO in the oxidation of SO2. In this reaction, NO (the catalyst) combines with oxygen to form NO2 (intermediate). The intermediate is consumed in the next step and the catalyst is regenerated.

The equilibrium constant can be treated as a particular type of molecular distribution. Consider the simplest gas-phase reaction, one in which molecules of A are converted to molecules of B. the reaction, described by the equation Q : How haloalkanes are prepared from Alkyl halides can be prepared from alkanes through substitution and from alkenes through addition of halogen acids or through allylic substitution. From alkanesWhen alkanes are treated with halogens, chlo

A student was analyzing an unknown containing only Group IV cations. When the unknown was treated with 3M (NH4)2CO3 solution, a white precipitate formed. Because the acetic acid bottle was empty, the student used 6M HCl to dissolve the precipitate. Following the procedure of this experiment, the stu
