Solution
The correct option is B products
Catalysts are generally foreign substances
but sometimes one of the product formed may act as a catalyst and such a
catalyst is called "auto catalyst" and the phenomenon is called the auto
catalysis.
In auto-catalysis, one of the products of the reaction acts as a catalyst.
For
example, when oxalic acid is titrated with KMnO4 in
presence of dil H2SO4, the colour of
KMnO4 first fades slowly and then faster due to the
formation of Mn2+ ions which act as auto catalyst.
2KMnO4+3H2SO4+5H2C2O4→K2O4+2MnSO4+8H2O+10CO2
