A catalyst does not alter the equilibrium of a chemical reaction; it only accelerates the rate at which equilibrium is reached. Additionally, a catalyst is not consumed in the reaction, meaning it can be used repeatedly. Furthermore, it does not change the overall energy change (enthalpy) of the reaction; it merely provides an alternative pathway with a lower activation energy.

Why the adsorption strength of the catalyst is an important factor in determining its success?

When reactants are binding to the surface of the catalyst, it is important that the catalyst is strong enough to allow a reaction to take place, however having a strong catalyst could mean that the products could permenantly bind to the catalyst, which is a problem. So if the catalyst is too strong, the catalyst isnt very sucessful, and if it is too weak, it also isn't sucesful.


Is it true that the effect of a catalyst on a reaction is to raise the activation energy?

No, it is not true that a catalyst raises the activation energy of a reaction. In fact, a catalyst lowers the activation energy, allowing the reaction to occur more easily and at a faster rate. By providing an alternative pathway for the reaction, catalysts facilitate the formation of products without being consumed in the process.

What causes molecules to change?

I think this refers to catalysts as these are considered not to be changed by a reaction-- sometimes this true when molecules react on the surface of a catalyst bu sometimes the catalyst does get involved in the chemical reaction- but is regenerated.
