Question

Which of the following highly vital industrial chemical synthesis processes are accurately paired with their designated transition metal (or transition metal compound) catalysts?

Answer: A,B,C,D

💡 Solution & Explanation

The massive surface area, variable oxidation states, and vacant d-orbitals make transition metals premium industrial catalysts. All listed pairs are industrially correct: finely divided Iron is used for ammonia synthesis; $V_2O_5$ oxidizes $SO_2$ to $SO_3$; $MnO_2$ lowers the activation energy for $KClO_3$ decomposition; and Titanium chlorides ($TiCl_3$ or $TiCl_4$) alongside an aluminum alkyl form the Ziegler-Natta polymerization catalyst.
