Q

Why CO is toxic

A

O2 forms a coordinate bond with Fe2+ in Haemoglobin enabling oxygen to be transported around the body
CO is toxic as it bonds more strongly and permanently to Fe2+ in heamoglobin
This prevents O2 binding to Fe 2+ causing suffocation

Q

Heterogeneous catalysis

A

Catalyst is in diffenent phase as reactants

41
Q

Homogeneous catalysis

A

Reactant is in same phase as catalyst

42
Q

How does a catalyst work

A

Reactants adsorb onto the surface of catalyst on active site
Reaction occurs on the surface of catalyst
Product desorb from surface of catalyst

43
Q

How to make catalyst efficient

A

Increase the surface area
Spread catalyst over the inert support of medium

44
Q

How can poisoning occur in catalyst

A

Impurities Allan block the active site
This prevent the reactants form adsorbing
Purifying the reactants is the best way to prevent poisoning

45
Q

Heterogeneous catalysis examples

A

Making ammonia is Harber process
Catalysed by solid iron
N2 + 3H2 = 2NH3
Making sulphuric acid in contact process
Catalysed by vanadium oxide V2O5

46
Q

Contact process

A

SO2 + V2O5 = SO3 + V2O4
2 V2O4 + O2 = 2V2O5
Overall reaction
SO2 + O2= SO3
SO3 can react with water to form sulphuric acid

47
Q

Menufacturing of methanol

A

Catalysed by chromium oxide
CH4 + H2O = CO + 3H2
CO + 2H2 =CH3OH

48
Q

Why transition metals act as catalyst

A

Because they have variable oxidation states

49
Q

Why group 1 elements don’t act as catalyst

A

Because they have only one oxidation state

50
Q

Homogenous catalysis examples

A

Peroxodisulfate ions oxidise iodide ions to iodine. reaction is catalysed by Fe2+ ions.

61
Q

Why uncatalysed reactions have higher Ea?

A

Both both ions are negative and they repel each other

62
Q

Autocatalysis

A

It is when one product of the reaction catalyses the reaction.

63
Q

example of autocatalysis

A

oxidation of ethandioic acid by manganate (VII) ions

64
Q

Graph for autocatalysis

A

rate starts off slowly as there is no catalysts initailly.
The two negatively charged reactants collide with a higher Ea.
Then some Mn^2+ is formed , the rate of reaction is being increased as Mn^2+ acts as a catalyst.
The rate then decreases and levels off as all the reactants get used up.

65
Q

reation of MnO4^- to Fe^2+

A

from deep purple to colorless

66
Q

Why HCl should never be used if transition metal redox reaction is taking place in acidic conditions?

A

Because both MnO4^- and Cr2O7^2- can oxidese Cl- ions to Cl2. Cl2 gas poses obvious safely risks. also effect titration effect, and make it seem like more oxidising agent has been used than it should be
sulphuric acid should be used to acidify the solutions.

67
Q

Describe briefly how colorimeter can be used to to determine the concentration of this solution ?

A

Make some known concentrations
Plot a graph of absorbance vs concentration
Read/compare the unknown concentration from calibration curve.

68
Q

Why reactants should be purified before they come into contact with catalyst.

A

So catalyst are not poisoned
