Question
Chapter 18, Problem 32P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
Compound that can remove
Concept introduction:
- Catalyst: Substance which helps in increasing the rate of a particular reaction without getting consumed in the reaction.
- Base Catalyst: A catalyst which helps in increasing the rate of a particular reaction by the removal of a proton. There are two types of catalysis:
- 1. Specific-base catalysis: Proton is completely removed before the slow step in a reaction
- 2. General- base catalysis: Proton is completely removed during the slow step in a reaction
- Intramolecular general-base catalysis: A catalysis where catalyst is a part of the molecule that undergoes the reaction promotes the reaction in a species by completely removing a proton during the slow step in a reaction
