2. Tro, Chemistry: A Molecular Approach2 Catalysts catalysts are substances that affect the rate of a reaction without being consumed catalysts work by providing an alternative mechanism for the reaction with a lower activation energy catalysts are consumed in an early mechanism step, then made in a later step mechanism without catalyst O 3(g) + O (g)  2 O 2(g) V. Slow mechanism with catalyst Cl (g) + O 3(g)  O 2(g) + ClO (g) Fast ClO (g) + O (g)  O 2(g) + Cl (g) Slow

4. Tro, Chemistry: A Molecular Approach4 Energy Profile of Catalyzed Reaction polar stratospheric clouds contain ice crystals that catalyze reactions that release Cl from atmospheric chemicals

5. Tro, Chemistry: A Molecular Approach5 Catalysts homogeneous catalysts are in the same phase as the reactant particles Cl (g) in the destruction of O 3(g) heterogeneous catalysts are in a different phase than the reactant particles solid catalytic converter in a car’s exhaust system

6. Tro, Chemistry: A Molecular Approach6 Types of Catalysts

7. Tro, Chemistry: A Molecular Approach7 Catalytic Hydrogenation H 2 C=CH 2 + H 2 → CH 3 CH 3

8. Tro, Chemistry: A Molecular Approach8 Enzymes because many of the molecules are large and complex, most biological reactions require a catalyst to proceed at a reasonable rate protein molecules that catalyze biological reactions are called enzymes enzymes work by adsorbing the substrate reactant onto an active site that orients it for reaction
