The addition of a catallystic during a chemical reaction alters which of the following quantities ?

A

Internal energy

B

Enthalpy

C

Activation energy

D

Entropy

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
A catalyst is a substance which alters the reaction rate but itself remains unchanges in amount and chemical composition at the end of the reaction. It provides a new reaction path with a lower energy barrier (lowering activation energy)
