Only if there is a desperate housing shortage! More seriously, a catalyst for a desired reaction can function by inhibiting competing reactions.
The catalyst is not a reactant; a catalyst only favors a chemical reaction, the reaction rate and yield.
A catalyst speeds up the rate of a reaction.
Yes, a catalyst can be re-used, because It is NOT actually used in a chemical reaction. A catalyst will increase the rate of reaction by attracting reactants, but the catalyst is not a reactant. However, the reuse cannot be done indefinitely then, depending on the severity of the reaction conditions, it can be occur a small, but accumulative deactivation of the catalys.
The opposite of a catalyst is an inhibitor, something that suppresses or slows a reaction.
A catalyst speeds up the rate of a reaction.
No, a catalyst will not change reaction enthalpy. If it does so, then it is NOT a catalyst but a reactant in stead!
It's called a catalyst. A catalyst is present during a chemical reaction but does not participate as a reactant or product. A catalyst lowers the reaction's activation energy, making the reaction easier to happen. In the equation for a chemical reaction, the catalyst's formula appears in small notation above the "yield" arrow (format won't let me show you an example.) An example of a catalyst is potassium iodide (KI) speeding up the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2).
The component affected when a catalyst is added to a chemical reaction is the reactants. The purpose of a catalyst is to speed up a reaction.
A catalyst is a substance that speeds up the rate of a chemical reaction.
In a chemical reaction, a catalyst is not consumed and remains unchanged at the end of the reaction process.
A catalyst is a substance that initiates or accelerates a reaction. The catalyst will vary depending on the reaction so it is not possible to give a definitive answer to the question.
no. the amount of catalyst does not influence the reaction; A catalyst simply provides an alternative route for the reaction with a lower activation energy.
