Question

Differentiate between auto catalysis and catalytic promoters with examples.

Answer 1

Answer:

Auto catalysis - the reaction is catalyzed by one of its product and that catalyzed is called Auto catalyst is called Auto catalysis. one of the simplest example of auto catalysed is in the oxidation of a solution of oxalic acid by an acidic oxide solution of potassium maganate ( potassium permanganate) the reaction is very slow at room temperature.

Catalytic promoters - a catalytic promoter is a substance that is usually means in small quantities with catalysts. mixing this substance increases the efficiency of the catalysts. in simple words it helps in improving the overall chemical reaction. example synthesis of ammonia.
