Why equilibrium constant of a reaction does not change in the presence of a catalyst ?
A hydrogenation reaction is carried out at 500 K. If the same reaction is carried out in the presence of a catalyst at the same rate, the temperature required is 400 K. Calculate the activation energy of the reaction if the catalyst lowers the activation energy by 20 kJ mol^(-1) .
