Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

What is the effect of a catalyst on the activation energy of a reaction?
  • Step 1: Understand what activation energy is. It is the energy needed for a chemical reaction to start.
  • Step 2: Know what a catalyst is. A catalyst is a substance that speeds up a reaction without being consumed in the process.
  • Step 3: Learn how a catalyst works. It provides an alternative pathway for the reaction that requires less energy.
  • Step 4: Realize the effect of a catalyst. By lowering the activation energy, a catalyst allows the reaction to happen faster.
