Answer:
By lowering the energy of the transition state, which is the rate-limiting step, catalysts reduce the required energy of activation to allow a reaction to proceed and, in the case of a reversible reaction, reach equilibrium more rapidly. ... To reiterate, catalysts do not affect the equilibrium state of a reaction.
