What is the role of diffusion in heterogeneous catalysis?
 

Answers (1)

Heterogenous catalyst is used to increase the rate of reaction in which catalyst is not in phase with reactants and products. Gaseous molecules get adsorbed on the surface of the catalyst. After the chemical reaction has taken place, products are desorbed from the surface. New molecules can then occupy the freed-up space.
