Cracking a hydrocarbon
You can find instructions for this experiment at http://www.rsc.org/learn-chemistry/resource/res00000681/cracking-hydrocarbons
Liquid paraffin (a mixture of alkanes of chain length C20 and greater) is vaporised and passed over a hot pumice stone catalyst. A gaseous product is obtained which is flammable and which will decolorise bromine water and acidified permanganate ions. The same apparatus and method can be used to dehydrate ethanol.

Why is porous pot catalyst used normally in this reaction? How exactly does it reduce the activation energy?
