A catalyst is a substance that increases the rate of a chemical reaction without being consumed in the process. It works by providing an alternate pathway for the reaction to occur, lowering the activation energy required for the reaction to take place. This allows the reaction to proceed more quickly or at lower temperatures than it would without the catalyst.
