Which statement best describes why industry uses heterogeneous catalysts? They tend to be more stable.
They are all gases at room temperature.
They form strong bonds with reactant molecules.
They cause stronger bonds to form between molecules.

They tend to be more stable

Explanation:

A heterogeneous catalyst is a type of catalyst that exist in a phase which is different from the phases of the reacting mixture or specie or the products and the reactants are absorbed into sites on the catalyst for binding

The heterogeneous catalyst is used in industry because of its main advantage, which is its ease and simplicity of separation from the mixture of the reaction using a straightforward process such as filtration to recover and reuse a costly (heterogeneous) catalyst

Therefore, industry uses the heterogeneous catalyst because the catalyst tend to be more stable and can be easily recovered and reused in its original form

"standard molar enthalpy:

h2o ( liquid water ) : - 285.8 kj/mole

h2o ( water vapor ) : - 241.8 kj / mole.

δhrxn = - 241. 8 - ( - 285.8 )= -241.8 + 285.8 = 44.0

answer: 44.0 kj"
