What effect does a catalyst have?
a catalyst has no effect in chemical reaction. it only increases or decreases the rate of the chemical reaction.
What net effect does a chemical reaction have on a catalyst?
None: The catalyst remains unchanged, but the catalyst also speeds up the reaction.
What is the effect of a catalyst on the required energy to achieve effective collisions?
catalyst decreases the activation energy of a chemical reaction, thereby increasing the effective collisions and hence the rate of the chemical reaction
What effect does the addition of heat usually have on the rate of a chemical reaction?
The addition of heat stimulates the molecules in the reaction. Because they will move faster, the reaction will speed up.
What ia a catalyst?
A Catalyst provides an alternate and less complicated pathway or route for reactants to form products in a reaction. An effect of a catalyst is the speeding up or slowing down of the rate of a chemical reaction.It should not be confused with Promoter, which increases the efficiency of a catalyst.

How does catalyst effect chemical change?
A catalyst alters the rate of a chemical reaction.
What is the effect of a catalyst on a chemical reaction?
To Cause a Chemical reaction. A properly chosen, specific catalyst is able to speed up the rate of a particular chemical reaction.
What net effect does a chemical reaction have on a catalyst?
None: The catalyst remains unchanged, but the catalyst also speeds up the reaction.

Assuming that the reaction is at equilibrium what effect does the addition of a catalyst have on the equilibruim?
a catalyst lowers the activation energy for both the forward and reverse reaction. however, it does not change the potential energy of the reactants or products. it also does not affect the heat of reaction (delta h)
Vehicle emissions devices incorporate a chemical reaction to help control carbon monoxide pollution What effect does adding a catalyst have for this reaction?
It produces more carbon monoxide.
