Why does the rate of a reaction slow down when a reduced concentration of hydrochloric acid is added to a chemical?

the hydrochloric acid denatures the enzymes (changes their shapes), so they can no longer bind to the substrate and make the reaction occur.

Which species were oxidized or reduced in HCl?
chlorine was oxidized while oxygen was reduced to form hydrochloric acid.
Is the reaction between sodium hydroxide and hydrochloric acid a redox reaction?
Not technically. A neutralization reaction is the correct answer. NaOH + HCl --> NaCl + H2O Products of a neutralization reaction; a salt and water. In a redox reaction something must be oxidized and something must be reduced and oxidation states must be changed, so I am not too sure that is happening here.
What chemical reaction is Zinc undergoing in a alkaline battery?
In an alkaline battery zinc is giving up electrons, so it's being reduced.
What is the Reaction of cyclohexane with alkaline KMno4?
The reaction of cyclohexane with alkaline potassium permanganate is oxidation. This oxidation gives off the chemical cis-1,2-cyclohenanediol. The permanganate ion is reduced to green manganite.
What happens if you mix distilled water and sodium hydroxide?
Sodium hydroxide simply becomes ionized in water, no reaction will occur. And the concentration of NaOH will be reduced, if enough water is added.
What is a reduced compound?
A reduced compound is a compound that came into contact with another chemical, experienced a chemical reaction, and lost an electron in the reaction. Reduced compounds are often oxidized.
What does the term reduced mean in a chemical reaction?
When iron reacts with oxygen, the steel is oxidized, the oxygen is reduced.
If the amount of oxygen reaching the log is reduced what happens to the rate of this chemical reaction?
the rate decreases
What chemical reaction takes place when bleaching a stain?
This action involve a chemical reaction.
When elemental Lithium metal reacts with Elemental Bromine what is oxidized and what is reduced?
The lithium is oxidized an the bromine is reduced. In a chemical reaction involving a metal in elemental form, the metal will be oxidized.
What is a reduced?
In Plumbing it is a pipe connector that also reduces the size of the pipe so two different sizes can be spliced. If you want to connect a 1" pipe to a 3/4" you would put a 1' to3/4" reducer there.

What does dilution mean in chemistry?
It is a process in which Hydrogen <h2> concentration is reduced by adding H2O. Dilution is exothermic reaction as it produce heat.
Decreasing the temperature of a reaction decreases?
According to collision theory, decreasing the concentration of the reactants in a chemical reaction decreases the frequency of the collisions between reactants, and therefore decreases the rate of the reaction.
How does dilution affect concentration of a solution?
Dilution reduces the concentration of a solution.
What chemical reaction is Zinc undergoing in a alkaline battery?
In an alkaline battery zinc is giving up electrons, so it's being reduced.
