How does catalyst effect chemical change?

A catalyst alters the rate of a chemical reaction.


will a catalyst change the enthalpy of a reaction in a chemical reaction?

No, a catalyst will not change reaction enthalpy. If it does so, then it is NOT a catalyst but a reactant in stead!

What are the two attributes of a catalyst?

A catalyst must change the rate of a chemical reaction. It must be unchanged at the end of the reaction.


What are the salient features of catalyst?

How catalyst can change the rate of a chemical reaction?

speeds it up or starts it


A substance that speeds up a chemical reaction without undergoing a permanent change itself is?

A substance that speeds up a chemical reaction without undergoing a permanent change itself is called a catalyst. Catalysts work by providing an alternative pathway for the reaction to occur, thereby lowering the activation energy needed for the reaction to proceed. Once the reaction is complete, the catalyst remains unchanged and available to facilitate more reactions.


How does adding a catalyst to reaction affect it?

A catalyst increases the rate of a chemical reaction by providing an alternative pathway with lower activation energy. It does not change the equilibrium state or the overall thermodynamics of the reaction. This allows the reaction to proceed faster without being consumed in the process.
