Catalysts affect reaction rates by providing an alternate route of reaction with lower activation energy. Therefore, they speed up the process they are catalyzing in both the forward and reverse directions.

What happens to the reaction rate when a catalyst is used in a chemical reaction?
With a catalyst the reaction rate is higher.
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.
Which would increases the reaction rate?
Temperature
What will change when a catalyst is added to a chemical reaction?
A catalyst speeds up the rate of reaction, and lower the activation energy needed.
What does a catalyst do to the rate of a chemical reaction?
A catalyst is a substance that speeds up the rate of a chemical reaction without changing the substance. It does this by reducing the minimal reaction energy. A catalyst is not used up in a reaction therefore they last indefinitely.

What effect does catalyst on a reaction?
A catalyst speeds up the rate of a reaction.
What effect does a catalyst having a reaction?
A catalyst speeds up the rate of a reaction.
Which would increases the reaction rate?
Temperature
What will change when a catalyst is added to a chemical reaction?
A catalyst speeds up the rate of reaction, and lower the activation energy needed.
How is the term catalyst related to reaction rate?
The catalyst is a substance added to the reaction to speed it up. All in all, thecatalystlowers the reaction rate.
Why a catalyst is not involved chemically in chemical reaction?
The catalyst is not a reactant; a catalyst only favors a chemical reaction, the reaction rate and yield.
What does a catalyst do to the rate of a chemical reaction?
A catalyst is a substance that speeds up the rate of a chemical reaction without changing the substance. It does this by reducing the minimal reaction energy. A catalyst is not used up in a reaction therefore they last indefinitely.
When a catalyst is added to a reaction?
There are positive catalysts used when the reaction rate is needed to be faster or the negative catalysts to make the reaction rate slower.
What must be done to increase the rate of reaction?
Temperature
How does the present of a catalyst affect the rate of reactions?
A catalyst is a substance which speeds up the rate of reaction. After the reaction it remain chemically unchanged. It does NOT affect the position of equilibrium. There can also be negative or "poisoned" catalysts as in Rosenmunds reaction.
