For a solid catalysed chemical reaction, the effectiveness of solid catalyst depends upon the ______________ adsorption?
Correct answer: A. Chemical
- A. Chemical
- B. Physical
- C. Both A. and B.
- D. Neither A. nor B.
Explanation
Catalytic activity mainly depends on chemisorption, because chemical adsorption forms activated bonds between the reactant and the catalyst surface. Physical adsorption is usually too weak to provide the required reaction activation.
