What else can I help you with?
What is the name of a material that slows down a reaction?
It's called an inhibitor, and it's the opposite of a catalyst.
Is a catalyst used up in 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.
will a catalyst change the enthalpy of a reaction in a chemical reaction?
No, a catalyst will not change reaction enthalpy. If it does so, then it is NOT a catalyst but a reactant in stead!
Which component is affected when a catalyst is added to a chemical reaction?
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.
Does the catalyst change the amount of energy released in the reaction?
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.
What is the opposite of a catalyst and how does it affect chemical reactions?
The opposite of a catalyst is an inhibitor. An inhibitor slows down or prevents a chemical reaction from occurring by interfering with the reaction process. This can result in a decrease in the rate of the reaction or a complete halt in the reaction.
What is the name of a material that slows down a reaction?
It's called an inhibitor, and it's the opposite of a catalyst.
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 effect does catalyst on a reaction?
A catalyst speeds up the rate of a reaction.
Is a catalyst used up in 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.

What is a substance that helps chemical reactions?
A substance that helps chemical reactions is called a catalyst. It speeds up the rate of a reaction by providing an alternative pathway with lower activation energy. Catalysts are not consumed in the reaction and can be used repeatedly.
What effect does a catalyst having a reaction?
A catalyst speeds up the rate of a reaction.
will a catalyst change the enthalpy of a reaction in a chemical reaction?
No, a catalyst will not change reaction enthalpy. If it does so, then it is NOT a catalyst but a reactant in stead!
What substance increases the rate of a reaction but is not itself changed by the reaction?
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).
Which component is affected when a catalyst is added to a chemical reaction?
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.
What is a substance that speeds up a reaction?
A catalyst is a substance that speeds up the rate of a chemical reaction.
Is the catalyst consumed in the reaction process?
In a chemical reaction, a catalyst is not consumed and remains unchanged at the end of the reaction process.
