A catalyst.
There are two types of catalyst:
* Homogenous: a catalyst in the same state (i.e. solid, liquid, gas) as the reactants. * Heterogenous: a catalyst in a different state than the reactants
A substance that accelerates a chemical reaction but is not consumed in the process is called a catalyst. Catalysts work by lowering the activation energy required for a reaction to proceed, thus speeding up the reaction without being permanently changed or used up themselves.
No! A substrate is a reagent in a chemical reaction. Catalyse is the verb form of catalyst; a catalyst is a chemical species that participates in lowering the energy barrier of a chemical reaction and allow a reaction to occur more rapidly. A catalyst is not consumed in a reaction and therefore only a small amount of catalyst is required in any reaction (if required at all), whereas a substrate must be present in the proper stoichiometric amount to allow a reaction to proceed as it is consumed.
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.
A balanced chemical equation allows you to determine the ratio of reactants consumed and products produced in a chemical reaction. It also allows you to calculate the amounts of substances involved in the reaction based on the stoichiometry of the equation.
In most reactions there are two types of reactant. One of them is completely consumed and the other is only partially consumed. The reactant that is only partially consumed is the excess reactant.

If a substance is a reactant or product of a chemical reaction then, by definition, it cannot be a catalyst.
Heat usually accelerates any chemical changes

The energy provided by absorbing light can substitute for the heat energy that usually accelerates chemical reactions. More fundamentally, any endothermic chemical reaction can occur because an increase in entropy compensates for any heat absorbed by the reaction to make the free energy change negative.
A molecule that speeds up a chemical reaction is called a catalyst. Catalysts work by reducing the activation energy needed for a reaction to occur, which increases the rate of the reaction without being consumed in the process.

Any chemical reaction.
A catalyst is a chemical species that alters the rate of a chemical reaction without undergoing any type of change. Such catalysts that slow down a reaction are called negative catalysts or poison.
so the similarity is that they both speed up the reaction and both have special temperatures they best work at the only difference between them is that enzymes are found in humans and are not made by humans on particular purpose,whereas chemical catalysts are made by people and are not naturaly developed
A catalyst is a substance which alters the rate of a chemical reaction but is chemically unchanged at the end of the reaction. basically it increases or decreases the speed of a chemical or biological reaction, but it does not get itself involved in the reaction. hoped this helped (:
