Procedure
Vanadium is transition metal and it easily changes from one oxidation state to another. It can form unstable intermediates in one oxidation state and then readily changes into products by acquiring another stable oxidation state and thus providing new path to reaction.
Notes
Vanadium pentoxide is used in different, industrial processes as catalyst: In the contact process it serves for the oxidation of SO2 to SO3 with oxygen at 440°C. Besides it is used in the oxidation of ethanol to ethanale and in the production of phthalic anydride, polyamide, oxalic acid and further products.
