(i) Zeolites are microporous, crystalline, hydrated, alumino silicates, made of silicon and aluminium tetrahedra.
(ii) There are about 50 natural zeolites and 150 synthetic zeolites.
(iii) As silicon is tetravalent and aluminium is trivalent, the zeolite matrix carries extra negative charge.
(iv) To balance the negative charge, there are extra framework cations for example H+or Na+ons. Zeolites carrying protons are used as solid acids, catalysis and they are extensively used in the petrochemical industry for cracking heavy hydrocarbon fractions into gasoline, diesel, etc.,
(v) Zeolites carrying Na+ ions are used as basic catalysis.
(vi) One of the most important applications of zeolites is their shape selectivity.
(vii) In zeolites, the active sites namely protons are lying inside their pores. So, reactions occur only inside the pores of zeolites.
Reactant selectivity:
When bulkier molecules in a reactant mixture are prevented from reaching the active sites within the zeolite crystal, this selectivity is called reactant shape selectivity.
Transition state selectivity:
If the transition state of a reaction is large compared to the pore size of the zeolite, then no product will be formed.
Product selectivity:
It is encountered when certain product molecules one too big to diffuse out of the zeolite pores.

The heavier transition elements belong to fourth (4d), fifth (Sd) and sixth (6d) transition series. Their properties are expected to be different form the elements belonging to the first (3d) series due to the following reasons.

(iii) Atomisation enthalpy of 4d and Sd series are higher than the corresponding elements of the first series.
