What do catalyic converters have to do with acid rain?
Catalytic converters help reduce emissions of nitrogen oxides and sulfur dioxide, which are precursors to acid rain. By converting these harmful gases into less harmful substances, catalytic converters contribute to lowering the levels of pollutants that can lead to acid rain.
Is the body of a car made of platinum?
No.Platinum costs more than gold. It IS used in catalytic converters, though
What are advantages of using catalyst?
In the chemical industry and the industrial research, catalysis play an important role.The different catalysts are in constant development to fulfill economic, political and environmental demands.When using a catalyst it is possible to replace a polluting chemical reaction with a more environmental friendly alternative. Today, and in the future this can be vital for the chemical industry.The catalysts could help in accelerating chemical reactions and/or making it possible at lower temperatures.
What objects contain platinum?
Any household item is made from plutonium.
Why will catalytic converters not help to solve the problem of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere?
Catalytic converters reduce emissions of harmful pollutants that contribute to air pollution and smog, but they do not address greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide that contribute to global warming. Greenhouse gases are mainly produced by burning fossil fuels for energy, transportation, and industrial processes, and require broader strategies such as transitioning to renewable energy sources and improving energy efficiency to address.
What element are catalytic converters in an automobile made of?
Catalytic converters are made of platinum-iridium catalyst or a ceramic monolith
What year were catalytic converters made mandatory?
1975
Do planes have catalytic converters?

How many Catalytic Converters on a 2005 Expedition?
I believe there are two or three Catalytic Converters
Can you replace your 4 catalytic converters on a ford f150 2005 to 2 catalytic converters?
No
Is there silver in catalytic converters?
Silver is not an element found in catalytic converters. You can find platinum, which serves as a catalyst.
How many catalytic converters are in a 1999 Camry CE?
How many catalytic converters are in a 1999 Camry CE?
Why are catalytic converters called catalytic converters?
Because they have a chemical catalyst inside them which neutralizes harmful emissions.
Are most catalic converters made of silver?
No, most catalytic converters are not made of silver. They typically contain precious metals such as platinum, palladium, and rhodium, which are used as catalysts to facilitate chemical reactions that reduce harmful emissions. Silver is not commonly used in catalytic converters due to its lower catalytic efficiency and higher cost compared to these other metals.
Are catalytic converters radioactive?
NO! Catalytic converters contain platinum which is used as a catalyst in many different chemical reactions.
