Adsorption theory is applicable for
- A homogeneous catalysis
- B heterogeneous catalysis
- C autocatalysis
- D induced catalysis
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) heterogeneous catalysis
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Adsorption theory is applicable for solid catalysts which show heterogenous catalysis. According to this theory, the gaseous reactants are adsorbed in the surface of the solid catalyst. As a result, the concentration of the reactants increases on the surface and hence the rate of reaction increases.
