    In Ostwald process of manufacturing of \[HN{{O}_{3}}\], catalyst used is:

    A)  Mo           

    B)  Fe

    C)  Mn           

    D)  Pt

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    Key Idea: Write the reaction to find catalyst of Ostwald process.                 \[4N{{H}_{3}}+S{{O}_{2}}\xrightarrow{Pt}4NO+6{{H}_{2}}O+\] Heat \[2NO+{{O}_{2}}\xrightarrow{{{50}^{o}}C}2N{{O}_{2}}(g)\] \[3N{{O}_{2}}+{{H}_{2}}O\xrightarrow{{}}2HN{{O}_{3}}+NO\] \[\therefore \] Pt is catalyst in Ostwald process.
