In the case of auto catalysis

A

product catalysis

B

solvent catalysis

C

reactant catalysis

D

heat produced in the reaction catalysis.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
Sometimes one of the products of a reaction is capable of accelerating the rate of a reaction. Such a reaction is called an autocatalytic reaction. For example oxidation of oxalic acid by `KMnO_(4)` solution in which the product `Mn^(++)` ions act as catalyst, the reaction becoming faster and faster with time.
