Several factors can contribute to the high reactivity of a catalyst:
1. Surface Area: Catalysts with a high surface area provide more active sites for the reaction to occur. 2. Active Sites: The nature and number of active sites on the catalyst can greatly influence its reactivity. 3. Electronic Properties: The electronic configuration of the catalyst can affect its ability to interact with reactants. 4. Temperature and Pressure: Reaction conditions such as temperature and pressure can also impact the reactivity of a catalyst.
