The second reaction in the formation of sulfuric acid occurs slowly. 2 upper S upper O subscript 2 (g) plus upper O subscript 2 (g) right arrow 2 upper S upper O subscript 3 (g).

NO2 is added to the reaction to speed it up. In which form would this substance be a homogeneous catalyst for this reaction?
NO2(g)
NO2(l)
NO2(s)
NO2(aq)

The correct option is

Explanation:

A catalyst is defined as the chemical species that increases the reaction rate but does not participate in it and is left behind after the completion.

A homogeneous catalyst is one that is present in the same phase as the reactants and products.

A heterogeneous catalyst is one that is present in different phase as that of reactants and products.

For the given chemical reaction:

As all the reactants and products are in gaseous state so, the homogeneous catalyst must also be in the gaseous state only.

Hence, the correct option is

answer: option (b) is the correct answer.

explanation:

a covalent bond is formed by sharing of electrons. whereas polarity arises due to difference in electronegativity of two atoms.

therefore, more is the electronegativity of an atom which combines with the titanium, more readily it will induce a partial positive and negative charge.

thus, out of the given options fluorine is most electronegative and has an incomplete octet. therefore, it will readily combine with titanium to share the electrons and complete its octet.  

where are the choice options?
