A catalyst helps speed up a chemical reaction.
For example, a catalyst of acidified dichromate ions or acidified permanganate ions can help speed up the reactions of oxidation of an (alcohol into an aldehyde?) etc.
Catalysts are used for reactions which would usually be of a very slow speed.

∙ 14y agocatalysts are used to speed up the reactions with out themselves being used up. because of catalysts many reactions, which take place in a very slow speed, end up fast.

Why are all enzymes are catalysts but not all catalysts are enzymes?
but all catalysts aren't enzymes...
Are Noble gases catalysts?
No. Generally they are not catalysts
Why do chemical manufacturers often use catalysts?
Chemical manufacturers use catalysts because they speed up the rate of the reaction taking place, without effecting the chemical formation of both the reactants (which form the product) or the catalyst itself.
Enzymes are catalysts. How do enzymes increase the reaction rate?
Enzymes are natural catalysts, these natural catalysts speed up reactions.
Elements in the halogen group can be used as catalysts?
These elements are not used as catalysts.

What do cells use to speed up cellular respiration?
Enzymes - biological catalysts.

enzymes are biological catalysts
Why do chemical manufacturers often use catalysts?

Is it proteins and catalysts that speed up the rate of a reaction?
Catalysts
Do catalysts form salt?
Of course not, catalysts doesn't react.
