What does a catalyst do in a chemical reaction?
Reduces the activation energy of the reaction, which speeds up the progress of the reaction It increases the rate of a chemical reaction. However a true catalyst is not consumed in the reaction.
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.
Function of catalyst and inhibitor in reaction kinetic?
A catalyst provides a reaction pathway with a lower activation energy and so directs the reaction one specific way or accelerates the reaction. An inhibitor blocks a reaction path and so prevents a product or slows down the reaction.
What happens to a catalyst after a reaction?
In any reaction, a catalyst is never used up or changed. This means that at the end of every reaction you should always get your catalyst back. sometimes in the course of the reaction, the catalyst is used up, but by the end of the reaction it will always be reformed completely.
What is the material that slows down the rate of a chemical reaction?
negative catalyst.
What slows down a reaction?
Catalyst
What is the relationship between a catalyst and an inhibitor?
A catalyst speeds up a reaction and an inhibitor slows down a reaction

Does the addition of a catalyst to a chemical reaction increase the reaction rate?
Most catalysts do, but not all. Some catalyst can also slow down the speed, so they are generally referred to as Negative catalyst

Can a catalyst be used in place of an inhibitor?
umm no. they are opposites. a catalyst will speed up a reaction and an inhibitor will slow it down.
What is a substance that slows down or stops a chemical reaction?
an inhibitor
What is the material that slows down the rate of a chemical reaction?
negative catalyst.
What is it called when you slow down a chemical reaction?
This is called an inhibitor or negative catalyst
Why does a reaction slow down the time?
Usually:decreasing concentrationlowering the temperaturesometimes lowering pressureremoving any catalyst
