Answer:

TRUE

Explanation:

Each electronic shell in an atom is composed of subshells, which are denoted by the symbol s, p, d and f. These subshells are represented by the principal quantum number (n) and the azimuthal quantum number (ℓ).  

Each subshell can hold a fixed number of electrons, which is equal to (4ℓ + 2) electrons.

For, d subshell the value of ℓ = 2.

<u>Therefore, the maximum number of electrons that a d-orbital can hold = (4ℓ + 2) electrons = (4×2 + 2) electrons = 10 electrons.</u>

True or false? different reactions require different catalysts.
lapo4ka [179]

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.
