What Factors Influence Time Consumption in Catalysis?
Several factors can influence the time consumption in catalysis, including:
Catalyst concentration: Higher concentrations of catalysts generally increase the reaction rate. Temperature: Elevated temperatures can increase the reaction rate but may also lead to catalyst deactivation. Pressure: In gas-phase reactions, higher pressures can increase reaction rates. Reactant concentration: Higher concentrations of reactants can lead to faster reactions. Catalyst surface area: Greater surface areas allow for more active sites, speeding up the reaction.
