\(2 \mathrm{SO}_{2}(g)+\mathrm{O}_{2}(g) \stackrel{\mathrm{V}_{2} \mathrm{O}_{5}}{\rightleftharpoons}\) is an example for

  1. A neutralisation reaction
  2. B homogeneous catalysis
  3. C heterogeneous catalysis
  4. D irreversible reaction
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) heterogeneous catalysis

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(2 \mathrm{SO}_{2}(g)+\mathrm{O}_{2}(g) \underset{\text { (solid) }}{\stackrel{\mathrm{V}_{2} \mathrm{O}_{5}}{\rightleftharpoons}} 2 \mathrm{SO}_{3}(g)\)
In this reaction reactants as well as the catalyst are present in more than one phase hence it is an example of heterogenous catalysis.
