A catalyst, (i) Increases the average kinetic energy of the molecules (ii) Decreases the activation energy (iii) Alters the reaction mechanism (iv) Increases the surface area of the reactants Which of the following is CORRECT?

Answer: (B)

Solution

A catalyst lowers the activation energy by providing a new mechanism (ii and iii true), but it does not change the temperature, so average
