Shape selective catalysis is a reaction catalysed by

A

zerolites

B

enzymes

C

platinum

D

Ziegler-Natta catalyst.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
Zeolite is a most widely studied shape-selective catalyst. Shape selectivity of zeolite depends upon between 260 pm to 740 pm. Such catalysts are highly specific because molecules of only a particular size and shape enter these pores and get adsorbed.
