What effect does a catalyst have on the reaction rate and the products formed in a reaction? The catalyst increases the amount of products formed at the end of the reaction. The catalyst provides an alternate pathway with lower activation energy. The catalyst has no effect on the amount of products formed at the end of the reaction. The catalyst has no effect on the activation energy.

What is the difference between exergonic and exothermic? What is the difference between intermediate and transition state? What is the relation between activation energy and the rate of a reaction?
Which factor, if increased in magnitude, will slow the rate of a reaction. O frequency factor O temperature O activation energy O concentration of a reactant
When the concentrations of reactant molecules are increased, the rate of reaction increases. The best explanation for this is that as the reactant concentration increases, the activation energy increases. the frequency of molecular collisions increases. the average kinetic energy of molecules increases. the rate constant increases.
On an energy diagram of a reaction, the change in enthalpy (ΔH) of a reaction is the difference in energy between __________. the reactants and the products the reactants and the transition state the products and the transition state none of these, it is equal to the activation energy
