The chemisorption energy is typically in the range of EChem ≈ 20 - 150 KJ/mol H2 and thus significantly higher than the respective energy for physisorption which is in the order of 4-6 kJ/mol H2. This hydride formation is exothermic, as entropy of product is lower
CATALYTIC OXIDATION OF METHANOL (CH3OH) TO FORMALDEHYDE (HCHO) By- Paidi Krishna Pradeep (2015CH10118) Chemical Synthesized: In this term paper, we are going to discuss the synthesis of Formaldehyde from Methanol by catalytic oxidation. Formaldehyde is the simplest molecule in the aldehyde family. It is also known as methanal based on the IUPAC nomenclature system. Structure of Formaldehyde Uses of Formaldehyde: It is used as a disinfectant as it is effective in killing most of the bacteria and
