How Does Solution Concentration Influence Homogeneous and Heterogeneous Catalysis?
In homogeneous catalysis, where the catalyst and reactants are in the same phase (usually liquid), the concentration of the solution directly affects the reaction rate and mechanism. In heterogeneous catalysis, where the catalyst is in a different phase (usually solid) from the reactants, the concentration of reactants in the solution can influence the adsorption and desorption processes on the catalyst surface, thereby affecting the overall reaction rate.
