Question

Give at least 10 chemical reactions that typically happen at home. For those reactions, identify the following:

(a) chemical equations involved

(b) homogeneous or heterogeneous reaction

(c) catalytic or non-catalytic reaction

(d) slow, moderate or fast reaction

 

Examples:

 

1. Burning of coal

  • C + O2 → CO2, S + O2 → SO2 and  2 H2+ O→ H2O
  • heterogeneous reaction
  • non-catalytic reaction
  • fast reaction

 

2. Food Spoilage

  • C6H12O6 + 6 O2 → 6 CO+ 6 H2O
  • heterogeneous reaction
  • catalytic reaction
  • slow reaction
