Does the catalyst slow down the chemical reaction rate? Still can only accelerate
The role of the catalyst is to change the activation energy to achieve the purpose of changing the reaction rate, there is a rate of response to speed up the rate of slow response
As far as I know, depending on the definition of the catalyst to reduce the activation energy can only accelerate the reaction rate. However, some substances can reduce the rate of reaction, for example, to dilute the reaction solution to slow down the reaction rate, but slow down the general mention of the catalyst.
