Question
A Catalyst
Options
A.Changes the equilibrium constant
B.Lowers the activation energy
C.increases the forward and backward reactions at different speeds.
D.Follows same mechanism for the reaction.
Solution
A catalyst lowers down the activation energy . Greater is decrease in activationenergy,higher will be the reaction rate.
