The article “n-Nonane Hydroconversion on Ni and Pt Containing HMFI, HMOR and HBEA” (G. Kinger and H. Vinek, Applied Catalysis A: General, 2002:139–149) presents hydroconversion rates (in μmol/g · s) of n-nonane over both HMFI and HBEA catalysts. The results are as follows: HMFI: 0.43 0.93 1.91 2.56 3.72 6.19 11.00 HBEA: 0.73 1.12 1.24 2.93 Can you conclude that the mean rate differs between the two catalysts?
