Unburned hydrocarbon on reacting with oxygen undergoes combustion reaction. However, the activation energy of this reaction is significantly high. When a catalyst like Pd is added to the reaction system, it provides active sites for the reaction to occur. It acts are a heterogeneous catalyst. It is pertinent of note that catalyst is refereed as heterogeneous, when it exist in different phase as compared to reactant and products. In present case, reactants and products are in gas phase, while catalyst is in solid phase. Due to availability of larger surface area at active site of Pd, activation energy of reaction decreases and decrease in activation energy favors higher reaction rates.

Answer:
d. 54.9 kPa
Explanation:
mmHg and Pa are units of pressure used in chemistry principally in the study of gases. 1mmHg is equal to 133.322Pa. 412mmHg are:
412 mmHg * (133.322Pa / 1mmHg) = 54929 Pa
The prefix K (Kilo) represents one thousand of the determined unit.
54929Pa are:
54929Pa * (1KPa / 1000Pa) = 54.9kPa
Right answer is:
<h3>d. 54.9 kPa
