Promoter, in chemistry, substance added to a solid catalyst to improve its performance in a chemical reaction. By itself the promoter has little or no catalytic effect. Some promoters interact with active components of catalysts and thereby alter their chemical effect on the catalyzed substance. The interaction may cause changes in the electronic or crystal structures of the active solid component. Commonly used promoters are metallic ions incorporated into metals and metallic oxide catalysts, reducing and oxidizing gases or liquids, and acids and bases added during the reaction or to the catalysts before being used.

Answer 2

Answer:

An example of a chemical reaction which involves promotor are :

i) For example, in Haber's process for the synthesis of ammonia, traces of molybdenum increases the activity of finely divided iron which acts as a catalyst. ... (ii) In the manufacture of methyl alcohol from water gas , chromic oxide is used as a promoter with the catalyst zinc oxide .
