The correct Answer is:
To determine which of the given options is a Ziegler-Natta catalyst, we need to analyze the options provided and identify the correct catalyst used in polymerization. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Ziegler-Natta Catalyst**: - The Ziegler-Natta catalyst is primarily used for the polymerization of alkenes to produce polymers like polyethylene and polypropylene. It typically consists of a combination of a transition metal compound and an organoaluminum compound. 2. **Analyzing the Options**: - **Option A: V2O5** (Vanadium pentoxide) - This compound is known to be a catalyst used in the contact process for the production of sulfuric acid (H2SO4). It is not a Ziegler-Natta catalyst. - **Option B: Triethyl aluminum + TiCl4** - This combination is indeed known as the Ziegler-Natta catalyst. Triethyl aluminum (an organoaluminum compound) reacts with titanium tetrachloride (TiCl4, a transition metal compound) to form the catalyst used in the polymerization of alkenes. - **Option C: Rhodium or Palladium** - While these are transition metals and can act as catalysts, they are not specifically Ziegler-Natta catalysts. They are often used in other types of catalytic processes. - **Option D: Rhodium with Chlorine and Triphenylphosphine (PPh3)** - This combination is known as the Wilkinson catalyst, which is used for hydrogenation reactions, not for the polymerization of alkenes. 3. **Conclusion**: - Based on the analysis, the correct Ziegler-Natta catalyst from the options provided is **Option B: Triethyl aluminum + TiCl4**. ### Final Answer: **Option B** is the Ziegler-Natta catalyst.
