Essential Chemistry for IGCSE - Rate Of Reaction (Section 2 - No. 33)
How does a catalyst affect the equilibrium of a reversible reaction?
It shifts the equilibrium to the right.
It shifts the equilibrium to the left.
It speeds up the rate at which equilibrium is reached.
It does not affect the position of the equilibrium.
Explanation
A catalyst only speeds up the rate at which equilibrium is reached, but does not change the position of the equilibrium.
