Catalysis can be divided into :
(a) Homogeneous catalysis
(b) Heterogeneous catalysis
In homogeneous catalysis the catalysis exist in the same phase as the reacting substances .
`2SO_2(g) + O_(2)(g) overset(NO_((g)))(rarr)2SO_3(g)`
Heterogeneous catalysis involves the catalysis in different phase than that of the reactants.
`2HI(g) overset("Gold"(s))(rarr)H_2(g) + I_2(g)`.
