Question

Q.26 Regarding criteria of catalysis which one of the following statements is not true:
(1) The catalyst is unchanged chemically during the reaction
(2) A small quantity of catalyst is often sufficient to bring about a considerable amount of the reaction
(3) In reversible reaction, the catalyst alters the equilibrium position
(4) The catalyst accelerates the rate of reaction​

Answer 1

Answer:

option no .2

Explanation:

In the presence of a catalyst, both the forward and reverse reaction rates will speed up equally, thereby allowing the system to reach equilibrium faster. However, it is very important to keep in mind that the addition of a catalyst has no effect whatsoever on the final equilibrium position of the react
