True, different reactions require different catalysts. Hence, option 1 is correct.

<h3>What are catalysts?</h3>

A catalyst is a substance that speeds up a chemical reaction or lowers the temperature or pressure needed to start one, without itself being consumed during the reaction.

Though a catalyst is supposed to remain unaltered at the end of the reaction, it does take part in the reaction by providing active centres for the reaction to take place.

By helping to form a suitable activated complex in the course of the reaction, the catalyst increases the rate of formation of the product, as well as its yield.

Therefore, a catalyst has to be reactant-specific to form the favourable activated complex or intermediate.

Hence, option 1 is correct.

3. Molar concentration by formula.

$\begin{array}{rcl}M_{\text{a}}V_{a} & = & M_{\text{b}}V_{b}\\M_{a} \times \text{0.025 00 L} & = & \text{0.3840 mol/L} \times \text{0.034 52 L}\\0.025 00M_{a}\text{ L} & = & \text{0.013 26 mol}\\M_{a}&= &\dfrac{\text{0.013 26 mol}}{\text{0.025 00 L}}\\\\& = &\textbf{0.5302 mol/L}\end{array}$

(i) Comparison of molar concentrations

The formula gives a calculated value of 0.5302 mol·L⁻¹.

Dimensional analysis gives a calculated value of 0.1767 mol·L⁻¹.

The first value is three times the second.

It is wrong because the formula assumes that the acid supplies just enough moles of H⁺ to neutralize the OH⁻ from the NaOH.

Instead, I mol of H₃PO₄ provides 3 mol of H⁺, so your calculated concentration is three times the true value.

(ii) When is the formula acceptable?

The formula is acceptable only when the molar ratio of acid to base is 1:1.

Examples are

HCl + NaOH ⟶ NaCl + H₂O

H₂SO₄ + Ca(OH)₂ ⟶ CaSO₄ + 2H₂O

H₃PO₄ + Al(OH)₃ ⟶ AlPO₄ + 3H₂O
