Chemical master invited (about catalyst)
From the thermodynamics can be reaction, and the three formulas can be added to eliminate the intermediate product, indicating that the reaction may occur. The definition of the catalyst is not complete. I am a junior undergraduate student of Jilin University School of Chemistry, according to the definition of the catalyst in the university textbook, the catalyst itself reacts with the reactants to produce unstable intermediates. After the reaction is finished, the intermediate product is explained and the catalyst is reduced. Apparently did not participate in the reaction. So the catalyst to change the course of the reaction, the original reactants to go through a relatively high energy to produce products, there will be a catalyst after a few relatively low energy barrier, so much easier, the reaction rate is greatly accelerated The It can be seen, the catalyst is not no response, but only after the completion of the reaction to restore it. It can also be seen that the amount of catalyst does not matter, and some reactions require the amount of catalyst to be approximately equal to the amount of reactants. Waiting for you to high school and university to further study on this issue will have a more clear understanding of the.
