- Select all of the correct statements about reaction rates from the choices below. The lower the rate of a reaction the longer it takes to reach completion. The rate of a fast step has more effect on the overall reaction rate than the rate of a slow step. Catalysts decrease reaction rates. Reaction rates increase as concentrations of homogeneous catalysts increase. The fastest step in a reaction is called the rate-determining step. Solid catalysts do not affect reaction rates.
