How Catalysts Work

The video explains how modern cars produce less pollution due to catalytic converters, which use platinum and rhodium to speed up chemical reactions in exhaust emissions. It distinguishes between heterogeneous and homogeneous catalysts, highlighting their roles in reducing pollution and facilitating chemical reactions. The video also covers practical applications of catalysts in agriculture, such as ammonia fertilizer production, and in biology, where enzymes act as catalysts to speed up biological processes. Overall, catalysts are crucial in various fields for enhancing reaction efficiency and reducing environmental impact.
