Is catalyst a compound?
Not always, it can also be an element
Does temperature act as a catalyst?
yes.. No. That's no. Heat controls the rate of reaction, but a catalyst is defined as a *chemical agent* (element/ compound) that alters the rate of reaction.
Why d block element act as catalyst?
They have empty d orbitals.So they can adsorb electrons from substrate and act as catalysts
What term describes a substance rhat lowers the amount of energy needed to start a chemical reaction?
This substance is called a catalyst.
Is MnO a catalyst?
Yes, it is a chemical catalyst.
Is catalyst a compound?
Not always, it can also be an element
What chemical element is a good catalyst?
An important example is platinum.
Silvery metallic element used as catalyst and in various alloys?
yttrium
Which element is used as a catalyst in the manufacture of margarine?
The elements in the middle section of the Periodic Table are the transition in the Haber process; Nickel is a catalyst used in the manufacture of margarine.
An element that speeds up chemical rections is called?
Stimulants - but more probably catalyst.
An element that speeds up chemecal reactions is called a?
I believe you are looking for the term "accelerant." A catalyst.
Does temperature act as a catalyst?
yes.. No. That's no. Heat controls the rate of reaction, but a catalyst is defined as a *chemical agent* (element/ compound) that alters the rate of reaction.
Is there silver in catalytic converters?
Silver is not an element found in catalytic converters. You can find platinum, which serves as a catalyst.
What are catalysts made of?
base on what type of catalyst you are yalking about but all catalyst are made up of element which bonded together to form a funtional compound which are inert to the reaction but provided a alternative route in the particular reaction.
What element are catalytic converters in an automobile made of?
Catalytic converters are made of platinum-iridium catalyst or a ceramic monolith
Why d block element act as catalyst?
They have empty d orbitals.So they can adsorb electrons from substrate and act as catalysts
What element can cause a molecule to move faster?
If you mean something else, like- What can speed up a chemical reaction, that would be a catalyst. Or, you could say heat, though that is not an element.
