Answer is C
2(SO2) + O2 --------------> 2(SO3)
So2 and o2 both are gase. So it's homogeneous.
And we use v2o5 as catalyst. So it's catalytic.
(V2o5 is solid but it's not part of the reaction its just a catalyst so it's not heterogeneous).

It is catalytic heterogeneous reaction as the catalyst used is Pt-Rh catalyst, which is solid.

Answer should be D because oxidation of sulfur dioxide to sulfur trioxide using vanadium pentaoxide catalyst is a heterogeneous reaction as SO2, O2 & SO3 are gaseous while V2O5 is a solid material.

Answer is C.
Chamber process is different from contact process. Chamber process uses nitrogen oxide (g) as catalyst.

C is the answer. The lead chamber process is usually to prepare the sulphuric acid and the reactions which undergo in this process is an example of homogeneous catalysis.
