Identify each catalyst as either heterogeneous or homogeneous. The conversion of CO2 to carbonic acid, both of which are dissolved as liquids in the bloodstream, improves in the presence of the enzyme carbonic anhydrase (liquid). Ethylene oxide, an important material in chemical production, is manufactured by reacting ethylene with oxygen in the presence of a silver at a temperature of about 250 to 300°C and a pressure of less than fifteen atmospheres. In this reaction, the solid silver is catalyzing a gas reaction. What type of catalyst is it?

  the   balanced   equation   for   reaction of   ca metal   with   o2 to   produce   cao   is as below

2 ca+ o2→ 2 cao2

  explanation

the reaction is   balanced     since the   number of atoms   in reactant side is   equal to   number of atoms   in   product side.   for   example   they   are 2   atom of   ca in   reactant   side   and   2   atoms of ca   in   the product side.

  the   process   is a   meet the   requirement   of   redox   reaction because :     calcium   is   oxidized   from   oxidation state 0   to 2+   while   oxygen   is reduced from   oxidation   state   0   to 2-

it’s previous models   because when i picked that son of a gun’s answer it was wrong look for previous models because they might make it a different letter
