Question

A catalyst lowers the activation energy for both the forward and the reverse reactions in an equilibrium system, so it has no effect on the equilibrium position of a system
True
© False???

Answer 1

Answer:

True

Explanation:

A catalyst lowers the activation energy the same amount of both sides of the reaction.  The rates reactions may be going faster, but they still the same and are canceling each other out after adding or subtracting a catalyst.
