The correct Answer is:
To solve the question of identifying the mismatch between the catalyst and the corresponding process/reaction, we will analyze each option provided. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Option 1: Rhodium (Rh) with Wilkinson's Catalyst** - Wilkinson's catalyst is represented as RhCl(PPh3)2. - It is primarily used in hydrogenation reactions of unsaturated organic compounds. - **Conclusion**: This match is correct. 2. **Option 2: Titanium(IV) Chloride (TiCl4) with Ziegler-Natta Catalyst** - The Ziegler-Natta catalyst is a combination of TiCl4 and an organoaluminum compound (like Al(C2H5)3). - It is used for the polymerization of alkenes (alpha-olefins). - **Conclusion**: This match is also correct. 3. **Option 3: Vanadium Pentoxide (V2O5) with Haber-Bosch Process** - Vanadium pentoxide is known to be a catalyst in the contact process, where it catalyzes the oxidation of sulfur dioxide (SO2) to sulfur trioxide (SO3). - The Haber-Bosch process, on the other hand, is used for the synthesis of ammonia (NH3) from nitrogen (N2) and hydrogen (H2), typically using iron as a catalyst. - **Conclusion**: This match is incorrect (mismatch). 4. **Option 4: Nickel with Hydrogenation** - Nickel is commonly used as a catalyst in hydrogenation reactions, which involve the addition of hydrogen to unsaturated compounds to form saturated compounds. - **Conclusion**: This match is correct. ### Final Answer: The mismatch is in **Option 3: Vanadium Pentoxide (V2O5) with Haber-Bosch Process**. It is actually used in the contact process. ---
