Options:
  • A Shape-selective catalysis involves using catalysts with specific geometries to control reaction pathways. Zeolites have well-defined pores and channels.
  • B Shape-selective catalysis involves using catalysts with random structures to control reaction pathways. Zeolites have irregular shapes.
  • C Shape-selective catalysis involves using catalysts with variable geometries to control reaction pathways. Zeolites have amorphous structures.
  • D Shape-selective catalysis involves using catalysts with no defined geometry to control reaction pathways. Zeolites have irregular pores.
