A cаtаlytic cоnverter is required оn аll autоmobiles to prevent unwanted gaseous products from gasoline internal combustion engines escaping into the atmosphere. As shown in the image, examples of the gasses that are reacted in the converter are nitric oxide (NO) and carbon monoxide (CO), see above. These reactions (also shown below) are much faster with the catalyst compared to in the absence of the catalyst. What is the fundamental molecular level explanation for the increase in reaction rate in the presence of the catalyst? 2 NO(g) → N2(g) + O2(g) 2 CO(g) + O2(g) → 2 CO2(g)
