Match the catalysts to the correct processes:

Catalyst
(A)

TiCl_{3}

(B)

PdCl_{2}

(C)

CuCl_{2}

(D)

V_{2} O_{5}

Process
(i) Wacker process
(ii) Ziegler - Natta polymerization
(iii) Contact process
(iv) Deacon's process

Answer: (A)

Match each metal to the industrial reaction it is famous for.

TiC l_{3}

, with an aluminium alkyl, is the Ziegler-Natta catalyst for polymerising alkenes.

PdC l_{2}

runs the Wacker process that turns ethene into acetaldehyde.

CuC l_{2}

is the catalyst of Deacon's process for making chlorine, and

V_{2} O_{5}

is the Contact-process catalyst for sulfuric acid. So the pairing is

TiC l_{3}

with Ziegler-Natta,

PdC l_{2}

with Wacker,

CuC l_{2}

with Deacon and

V_{2} O_{5}

with Contact.
