1 Catalytic converters on cars use metals such as platinum as heterogeneous catalysts.
Catalytic converters turn exhaust emissions such as carbon monoxide and nitrogen monoxide
into less hazardous products.
(a)
(i) Explain the meaning of the term heterogeneous here.
..........................................................................................................................................................
..................................................................................................................................................... [1]
(ii) Why is carbon monoxide hazardous?
..........................................................................................................................................................
..................................................................................................................................................... [1]
(iii) Write an equation for the reaction of carbon monoxide with nitrogen monoxide to give less
hazardous products.
[1]
(iv) A simple model to explain the function of a heterogeneous catalyst involves four steps.
Complete Step 2 and Step 3 in the sequence below.
Step 1 Reactants are adsorbed onto the surface of the catalyst.
Step 2 ...........................................................................................................................................
Step 3 ...........................................................................................................................................
Step 4 Products are desorbed from the surface of the catalyst.
