The presence of a catalyst affect the enthalpy change of a reaction is that catalysts do not alter the enthalpy change of a reaction. Catalysts only change the activation energy which starts the reaction.
It does not change the enthalpy of a reaction.
What effect does a catalyst have on the mechanism of a reaction? It usually binds to the reactant(s) and orients the reactants optimally to speed up the reaction. Remeber the lock and key model for enzymes? Or even how Heterogeneous catalysis work by holding onto the reactant to orient it correctly. Stop googling and start thinking.
A catalyst affects the speed of a chemical reaction. If the chemical reaction gives off heat, the reaction may affect the temperature, but the catalyst by itself doesn't affect the temperature.
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.
The presence of a catalyst affects the activation energy of a reaction by lowering the activation energy, helping the reaction go faster and making it so the reaction does not have to use as much energy to fulfill the products.
The activation energy is reduced.

A catalyst speeds up the reaction and lowers the amount of heat needed.
A catalyst enables more particles to reach the activation energy and to take part in the reaction. Therefore the speed of the reaction increases.

yes. lowers it.
a catalyst lowers the activation energy for both the forward and reverse reaction. however, it does not change the potential energy of the reactants or products. it also does not affect the heat of reaction (delta h)
It lowers it, so the reaction is faster.
It lowers it, so the reaction is faster.
It lowers it, so the reaction is faster.
