Yes a catalyst can be reused because it unchanged chemically or in mass at the end of a reaction. However, this cannot be done indefinitely then, depending on the severity of the reaction conditions, it can be occur a small, but accumulative deactivation of the catalyst

∙ 14y agoYes, if you mean "can they continue to function in the same reaction?"
Wiki User
∙ 14y agoBecause a catalyst takes no part in the reaction it speeds up,so it an be used many times over.

∙ 13y agoCatalysts are often not consumed during chemical reactions, so they can be used many times.

∙ 14y agono it can be used over and over again

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.
What catalyst is used to speed up a reaction but is not used up in the reaction?
Anything that acts that way is a catalyst. It is the definition.
Is starch a catalyst?
