Question

Which is an example of a heterogeneous catalyst?

A amylase

B catalytic converter

C food preservatives

D amino acids

Answer 1

B. is the Answer catalytic converter

Answer 2

b.catalytic converter is correct option.

Step-by-step explanation:

• Heterogeneous catalysts: In this catalyst phase is different from the phase of the reactants. In heterogeneous catalysis, reactants are in the gas phase and solid phase catalysts are involved.

• The catalytic converter is a example of heterogeneous catalysts,In which palladium, rhodium are used as hetrogenous catalysts.
• The catalytic converter is used to decrease the toxic gases with the process of a redox reaction.

• The catalytic converter uses a catalyst to carry the reaction. The catalytic converter used in gasoline is the example of heterogeneous catalysis.

• catalytic converter by oxidation process converts the carbon monoxide gas into carbon dioxide.
