    Characteristics of catalysts I I o o o I The catalyst remains unchanged (in mass and chemical composition ) in the reaction (Activity of catalyst.) A small quantity of the catalyst is required. e.g. One mole of colloid Pt catalyses The catalyst does not change the equilibrium constant. But the equilibrium approaches earlier.

    I I I Specificity of catalyst The catalyst is specific in nature. It means o by the change of catalyst, nature of the products changes or specific catalyst for a specific reaction. co + co + 1120 CO + I-ICHO CO + 2112

    Characteristics of catalysts I I o o I The catalyst can not make impossible reaction to occur and does not intiate a reaction. Catalyst Poison: There are certain substances which decrease or destroy the activity of the catalyst. Such substances are known as catalytic poisons. E.g. arsenic destroys the catalytic activity of the platinum catalyst in the manufacture of sulphuric acid.

    Characteristics of catalysts I I I o o Catalyst Promoter: There are certain substances which increase the activity of the catalyst. Such substances are known as catalyst promoters e.g. MO acts as a promoter in the manufacture of ammonia by Haber's process. 2NH3 Ex. 2. In Bosch process of preparation of acts as a promoter for catalyst . Catalyst Poison or Promoter does not act like a catalyst.

    The Haber Process An essential industrial process
  • 35
    The Haber Process This reaction makes ammonia out of hydrogen and nitrogen. The nitrogen comes from the air (78% N). You don't need to worry about where the hydrogen comes from!

    The Haber Key facts I I 1. 2. 3. 4. H and N are mixed in a 3:1 ratio Because the reaction is reversable not all the nitrogen and hydrogen will convert to ammonia. The ammonia forms as a gas but cools and liquefies in the condenser The H and N which do not react are passed through the system again so they are not wasted. I

    I I I Ostwald process The Ostwald process is a chemical process for making nitric acid (HN03). Wilhelm Ostwald developed the process. The Ostwald process is a mainstay of the modern chemical industry It provides the main raw material for the most common type of fertilizer production. Historically and practically, the Ostwald process is closely associated with the Haber which provides the requisite raw process material, ammonia (NH3).
  • 44
    I I I Ostwald process Ammonia is converted to nitric acid in 2 stages. It is oxidized (in a sense "burnt") by heating with in the presence of a catalyst such oxygen platinum with 10% rhodium, to form nitric as oxide and water This step is strongly exothermic, making it a useful heat source once initiated: 4 NH3 (g) + 5 02 (g) 4 NO (g) + 6 H20 (g) (AH = -905.2 kJ)
  • 45
    I I I Ostwald process Stage two encompasses two reactions and is carried out in an absorption apparatus containing water. Initially nitric oxide is oxidized again to yield nitrogen dioxide This gas is then readily absorbed by the water, yielding the desired product (nitric acid, albeit in a dilute form), while reducing a portion of it back to nitric oxide 2 NO (g) + 02 (g) 2 N02 (g) (AH = -114 kj/mol) 3 N02 (g) + H20 (l) 2 HN03 (aq) + NO (g) (AH = -117 kJ/m01)
  • 46
    Ostwald process I I o o o The NO is recycled, and the acid is concentrated to the required strength by distillation Alternatively, if the last step is carried out in air: 4 N02 (g) + 02 (g) + 2 H20 (l) 4 HN03 (aq) I

    Ostwald process I I I o o o Typical conditions for the first stage, which contribute to an overall of about 98%, yield are: between 4 and pressure atmospheres (approx. 400-1010 kPa or 10 60-145 psig) and temperature is about 500 K (approx. 217 Cor 422.6

    I I I Hydrogenation of oils Hydrogenation means adding hydrogen to a substance. Liquid vegetable oils that are unsaturated will react with hydrogen at about 60 oc in the presence of a nickel catalyst This is an example of an addition reaction where hydrogen adds across the double bond leaving only single bonds. The picture below shows hydrogenation of a double bond

    I I I Hydrogenation of oils Hydrogenation raises the melting point above room temperature and makes the liquid oil become solid in a process called hardening. I HYDROGEN GAS -c—c- HEAT, NICKEL CATALYST Unsaturatod Saturatod Solid Fat Liquid Oil

    I I I Fermentation If no oxygen is available, cells can obtain energy through the process of anaerobic respiration. A common anaerobic process is fermentation. Fermentation is not an efficient process and results in the formation of far fewer ATP molecules than aerobic respiration. There are two primary fermentation processes: 1. Lactic Acid Fermentation 2. Alcohol Fermentation
  • 55
    I I I Alcoholic fermentation Alcoholic fermentation, also referred to as o ethanol fermentation, is a biological process in which molecules such as glucose, fructose, and sucrose are converted into cellular energy and thereby produce ethanol and carbon dioxide as metabolic waste products
