What will be the product for the reaction of catalytic hydrogenation of glycerol? Correct Answer Propylene glycol

Glycerol is easily reduced to propylene glycol (1,2- dihydroxypropane) with hydrogen at pressures from 10 to 100 atmospheres and temperatures above 150° C. Many catalysts may be used, e.g. Ni, Fe, Pt, Au, Hg, copper chromite or tungstic acid.

For a reaction, the extent of reaction equation is Ni = Nio + ϒVi is Where: Ni = Moles of species I present in the system after the reaction occurs Nio = Moles of species I present in the system when the reaction starts Vi = Stoichiometric coefficient for species i in the specified chemical reaction equation ϒ = Extent of reaction
Rate constant for a first order reaction does not depend upon reaction time, extent of reaction and the initial concentration of reactants ; but it is a function of reaction temperature. In a chemical reaction, the time required to reduce the concentration of reactant from 100 gm moles/litre to 50 gm moles/litre is same as that required to reduce it from 2 gm moles/litre to 1 gm mole/litre in the same volume. Then the order of this reaction is
