What is catalist?

A catalyst is a substance that accelerates a chemical reaction. It does this by lowering the activation energy necessary for that reaction to start. A catalyst is not a reactant or a product, and it does not get used up in a reaction. It is simply present with the reactants and the products and it does not change in a reaction. In an equation, it is correct to show the chemical formula for the catalyst in small characters above the "yield" arrow. The opposite of catalyst is inhibitor.

Is baking soda a catalyst?

As far as I'm aware, the work "catalyst" only applies to things which work on enzymes. Baking powder is a mixture of an acid and an alkali, which reacts upon adding a liquid by releasing Co2. (Although some also react upon heating). It is a chemical reaction, not an enzymatic one, therefore I don't think you can consider it to be a catalyst.


What effect does a promoter catalyst have on the position of the equilibrium?

By definition a catalyst cannot affect equilibrium because although a catalyst can speed up a chemical reaction, it cannot change the thermodynamics of it, and equilibrium is determined solely by thermodynamics. A catalyst may help a system reach equilibrium more quickly, but it will not change it. One possible way a catalyst could affect equilibrium is by introducing a catalyst that affects a different reaction involving the substrate or products of the original reaction, but this would be cheating since the system would no longer be closed.
