Question

What is the effect of catalyst on-a- Activation energy -Ea- and-b- Gibbs energy  - Delta G -

Toppr Admin · Accepted Answer

-a- On adding catalyst in a reaction- the activation energy reduces and the rate of reaction increases-b- A catalyst does not alter the Gibbs energy -Delta-G- of a reaction-

What is the effect of catalyst on:
(a) Activation energy (Ea), and
(b) Gibbs energy $$ ( \Delta G ) $$

(a) On adding catalyst in a reaction, the activation energy reduces and the rate of reaction increases.

(b) A catalyst does not alter the Gibbs energy ($$\Delta{G}$$) of a reaction.
