Question

Inorganic catalysts work efficiently at _______ temperature and _______ pressure.

• A. high, low
• B. low, low
• C. low, high
• D. high, high

Answer 1

The correct option is D high, high

Enzymes are organic catalysts. Most of the enzymes are proteinaceous. Since proteins get denatured at high temperatures, the enzymes do not work efficiently in high temperatures. Whereas inorganic catalysts are generally capable of working at high temperature as well as high pressure efficiently.
