What is a catalyst?
Andrew [12]

A catalyst is a substance added to the reaction that lowers the activation energy by providing an alternate pathway for the reactions to go to completion.

A catalyst is a substance that accelerates a chemical response, or lowers the temperature or strain needed to begin one, with out itself being ate up at some stage in the response. Catalysis is the procedure of adding a catalyst to facilitate a response.

Catalysts may be categorized as homogeneous, heterogeneous, or enzymatic. Homogeneous catalysts exist inside the identical phase as the reactants, whereas heterogeneous catalysts exist in a exclusive section than the reactants.

Catalysts are basically categorised into 4 kinds.Homogeneous, Heterogeneous, Heterogenized homogeneous catalyst and Biocatalysts. Homogeneous catalyst: In homogeneous catalysis, reaction mixture and catalyst both are gift inside the equal segment.

There is an error in the rate-determining step of the following proposed mechanism.
yulyashka [42]

Answer:

The steps with correct mechanism are given below:

C

1) CH₄(g) + Cl(g) → CH₃(g) + HCl(g) : This is a slow step.

The rate is given as: R1 = k₁[CH₄][Cl]  

2) CH₃(g) + Cl₂(g) → CH₃Cl(g) + Cl(g): This is a fast step.

The rate is given as: Rate = k₂[CH₃][Cl₂]  

∴ CH₄(g) + Cl₂(g) → CH₃Cl(g) + HCl(g)

Here, the slowest step will be the rate-determining step.

One molecule of sucrose is burned with oxygen to make carbon dioxide and water.

Disaccharide sugar sucrose is composed of glucose and fructose. It is produced naturally by plants and is the main component of white sugar. C₁₂H₂₂O₁₁ is the chemical formula for it.

Extraction and refining sucrose for human use can be done from either sugarcane or sugar beet. Raw sugar is created from crushing the cane, which is consistently delivered to other sectors to be refined into pure sucrose. Sugar mills generally are located in the tropical regions near the sugarcane plantations.

<em>                    C₁₂H₂₂O₁₁ + 12O₂  →  12CO₂ + 11H₂O</em>

When one molecule of sucrose is burnt, we get 12 carbon dioxide molecules.
