A chemical reaction is catalysed by catalyst X. Hence, X

Question

A chemical reaction is catalysed by catalyst X. Hence, X (A) increases the activation energy of reaction. (B) does not effect the equilibrium constant of reaction. (C) decreases the velocity constant of reaction. (D) decreases the enthalpy of reaction.

Tardigrade Admin · Accepted Answer

In a chemical reaction, catalyst increases the rate of forward and backward reaction equally hence catalyst does not effect the equilibrium constant of reaction.

increases the activation energy of reaction.

does not effect the equilibrium constant of reaction.

decreases the velocity constant of reaction.

decreases the enthalpy of reaction.
