What are the Challenges in Measuring Catalytic Properties?
Despite advanced techniques, measuring catalytic properties poses several challenges:
Reproducibility: Ensuring consistent results across different batches of catalysts and experimental setups. Sensitivity: Detecting low concentrations of reactants or products, requiring highly sensitive instruments. Complexity: Reactions with multiple steps or intermediates can complicate the measurement and interpretation of data. Environmental Factors: Temperature, pressure, and other conditions can significantly influence measurements.
