Question 19 • Chemistry

Which statement describes a homogeneous catalyst?

Answer
A
It forms different products than the uncatalyzed reaction forms.
B
It is in a gaseous phase only.
C
It is in the same phase as the reactants.
D
It is completely consumed by reactants.

Explanation

A homogeneous catalyst is in the same physical phase as the reactants, such as all being dissolved in the same solution. It speeds up the reaction without being completely consumed, and it does not define a different set of products; therefore, the correct statement is that it is in the same phase as the reactants.
