A catalyst is a substance which
- A changes the equilibrium concentration of the products
- B changes the energy of the reactants
- C shortens the time to reach equilibrium
- D changes the equilibrium constant
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) shortens the time to reach equilibrium
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
A catalyst decreases the activation energy of the reactants and thus, shortens the time to reach equilibrium.
