Read the given passage and answers following questions : A catalytic process in which the catalyst and the reactants are present in different phases is known as a heterogeneous catalysis. This heterogeneous catalytic action can be explained in terms of the adsorption theory. The mechanism of catalysis involves the following steps: (i) Adsorption of reactant molecules on the catalyst surface. (ii) Occurrence of a chemical reaction through the formation of an intermediate. (iii) De-sorption of products from the catalyst surface (iv) Diffusion of products away from the catalyst surface. In this process, the reactants are usually present in the gaseous state and the catalyst is present in the solid state. Gaseous molecules are then adsorbed on the surface of the catalyst. As the concentration of reactants on the surface of the catalyst increases, the rate of reaction also increases. In such reactions, the products have very less affinity for the catalyst and are quickly desorbed, thereby making the surface free for other reactants. How many steps involved in mechanism of catalysis ?

The given circuit diagram shows a series LCR circuit connected to a variable frequency 230 V source. How do you explain the observations that the algebraic sum of the voltages across the three elements is greater than the supplied voltages?

Gene flow occurs through generations. Gene flow can occur across language barriers in humans. If we have a technique of measuring specific allele frequencies in different population of the world, can we not predict human migratory patterns in pre-history and history? Do you agree or disagree? Provide explanation to your answer.

In each of the following problems, clearly state what the relevant and irrelevant factors are while going through Steps 1, 2 and 4 given in this chapter :- Suppose a car starts from a place A and travels at a speed of 40 km/h towards another place B. At the same instance, another car starts from B and travels towards A at a speed of 30 km/h. If the distance between A and B is 100 km, after how much time will the cars meet?
