MCQ
Which of the following statement is not correct for the catalyst?
  • A
    It catalyses the forward and backward reaction to the same extent.
  • B
    It alters $\Delta\text{G}$ of the reaction.
  • C
    It is a substance that does not change the equilibrium constant of a reaction.
  • D
    It provides an alternate mechanism by reducing activation energy between reactants and products.

Answer

  1. It alters $\Delta\text{G}$ of the reaction.

Explanation:

A catalyst does not alter Gibbs energy, (G) of a reaction. It catalyses the spontaneous reactions but does not catalyse non-spontaneous reactions.
