Question

Assertion reason
Statement1 for reaction a+b =c ,k=4 on addition of catalyst k beacomes more than 4
S2 catalyst helps to attain the eqilibrium faster from either end of reaction

Answer 1

Explanation:

Both the assertions are valid as the main property of a catalyst is to boost the speed of reaction, it increases rate constant or makes the reaction move qucikly towards equilibrium

A catalyst speeds up a chemical reaction by reducing the activation energy of the reactants, the lower the activation energy the faster they will react and the chemical reaction proceeds to an equilibrium faster

Answer 2

Answer:

Option A

Explanation:

The main property of a catalyst is to boost the speed of reaction, it increases rate constant or makes the reaction move quickly towards equilibrium.
