The role of a catalyst is to change:
1. Gibbs energy of the reaction
2. Enthalpy of reaction
3. The activation energy of the reaction
4. Equilibrium constant
In the presence of a catalyst, the heat evolved or absorbed during the reaction:
1. Increases.
2. Decreases.
3. Remains unchanged.
4. May increase or decrease.
The activation energy of a chemical reaction can be calculated by:
1. Determining the rate constant at standard temperature.
2. Determining the rate constant at two temperatures.
3. Determining probability of collision.
4. Using the catalyst.
