They are called enzymes, and they come in a vastly hugenumber of different types - each possessing just one biochemical function.
They are proteins called enzymes.

All chemical reactions run faster when heat is added.
A catalyst is a substance that speeds up other chemical reactions but is not consumed or permanently altered in that reaction. Basically the catalyst just makes it easier for the other chemicals to react with each other so that the reaction will proceed faster. Enzymes are biological catalysts(catalysts that are created by living organisms). So an enzyme catalyzed reaction is when chemicals are reacting with each other and an enzyme is used to catalyze(speed up) the reaction.
The most common way to speed up chemical reactions in non-living systems is to add heat. Heat causes the molecules to move faster, creating more collisions. In some reactions, extra oxygen is used to speed them up.
Corrosion is a chemical reaction. The vast majority of chemical reactions are speeded up by the input of heat. The energy from the heat causes the particles to move faster and thus react faster.
Concentrations of reactants; concentrations of products; changes in temperature (usually higher temperatures favor faster reactions); catalyst; for some reactions, incident light; and, for reactions with a volume change, changes in pressure.
Chemical reactions in cells are faster than the same reactions outside cells.
True chemical reactions in cells are faster than the same reactions outside cells. The substance upon which an enzyme acts is called the substrate.
Because chemical reactions happen quicker in an increases temperature. So the more chemical reactions, the more chemical weathering
faster
chemical weathering occurs faster in a hot climate because chemical reactions speed up with increased temperature.
membrane-bounded organelles act as catalysts for biochemical reactions.
Raising the temperature makes chemical reactions faster.

Heat speeds up chemical reactions. As corrosion is a chemical reaction, copper pipes at a higher temperature will corrode faster
This is known as chemical equilibrium. All of the chemicals will want to become stable and this can only happen with equilibrium.
