Question:
Sulfuric acid was once produced through the reaction of sulfur trioxide with water. Sulfur trioxide can form through the reaction of sulfur dioxide and oxygen gas. When nitrogen monoxide gas is added to the system, the reaction speeds up significantly because it proceeds through the following steps:
equations
Identify the catalyst in this reaction, explain how you know it is the catalyst, and describe how it increases the rate of the reaction.
Answer:
NO
It is present but not consumed
NO Lowers the activation energy of the reaction
Explanation:
A catalyst is a substance that is present in a chemical reaction and enables the reaction to occur at a faster rte but does not take part n the reaction
Therefore, whereby NO is not consumed, it is the catalyst
It functions by lowering the activation energy
i. When an acid reacts with metal, a salt and hydrogen are produced:
ii. When oxygen and metal react, metal oxide forms also known as rust
iii. metal and water produce hydrogen gas
The answer is an igneous rock.
Hope this helps!!
