<u>Answer:</u> The correct answer is Option A.

<u>Explanation:</u>

A catalyst is defined as the substance which increases the rate of the reaction without actually participating in the reaction.

This substance decreases the activation energy of the reactants, so as to proceed the reaction at a faster rate by increasing their effective collisions.

It does not affect the concentration of the reactants.

For the given reaction:

$2SO_2(g)+O_2(g)\rightarrow 2SO_3(g)$

If we add NO, which is acting as a catalyst will increase the rate of the reaction to produce the products which is $SO_3$

Hence, the correct answer is Option A.

Answer:

Here's what I get.

Explanation:

At the end of the reaction you will have a solution of the alcohol in THF.

The microdistillation procedure will vary, depending on the specific apparatus you are using, but here is a typical procedure.

Transfer the solution to a conical vial.
Add a boiling stone.
Attach a Hickman head (shown below) and condenser.
Place the assembly in in the appropriate hole of an aluminium block on top of a hotplate stirrer.
Begin stirring and heating at a low level so the THF (bp 63 °C) can distill slowly.
Use a Pasteur pipet to withdraw the THF as needed.
When all the THF has been removed, raise the temperature of the Al block and distill the alcohol (bp 143 °C).
