If a homogeneous catalytic reaction can ...

If a homogeneous catalytic reaction can take place through three alternative paths as depicted below, the catalytic efficiency of P,Q R representing the relative case would be

A

`P gt Q gt R`

B

`Q gt P gt R`

C

`P gt R gt Q`

D

`R gt Q gt P`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
The catalytic efficiency of a catalyst is measured in terms of the decrease in activation energy of the reaction. A catalyst is more efficient if it decreases the `E_("act")` to a larger extent. Thus correct order for catalyst efficiency is `R gt Q gt P`.

Substances which alter the velocity of a reaction by mere presence, without undergoing any change in mass and compossition are termed catalyst and the phenomenon is known as catalysis In homogenous catalytic reactions, there are three alternative paths A, B, and C (shown in figure). Which one of the following indicates the relative ease with which the reaction can take place?

Assertion (A): A certain recation is catalysed by acids and the catalytic activity of 0.1M solutions of the acids in water decrease in the order, HCI, HCOOH , and CH_(3)COOH . The same reaction takes place in anhydrous NH_(3) , but the three acids have same catalytic effect in 0.1M solution. Reason (R) : The order of catalytic activity in water is the same as the order of acidity. in anhyrous NH_(3) , all the three acids are strong.

Hydrogenation of alkenes and alkynes takes place in presence of certain catalysts. In Sabatier Senderen's reaction, the addition of hydrogen takes place I presence of Raney nickel catalyst. Platininm and palladium can also be used as catalyst and used in finley divided state. Experimentally, it is observed that less crowded alkenes adsorb H_(2) with faster rate. Controlled hydrogenation of alkyne H_(2) with faster rate. Controlled hydrogenation of alkyne in presence of Lindlar's catalyst yields cis product i.e., 'cis' alkene. Thus, in presence of Lindlar's catalyst 'syn' addition takes place. The relative rate of hydrogenation follows the order: Non-terminal alkynes are reduced in presence of Na or Li metal dissolved in liquid ammonia. In this reaction, anti-addition of hydrogen results into the trans-product. Answer the following questions: The relative rate of catalytic hydrogenation of following alkenes is:
