It provides an alternative reaction pathway with a lower activation energy. However, it does not lower the activation energy for the 'normal' reaction without a catalyst.

Prove by contradiction: Assume negation to be true i.e. √2 is rational Then √2 can be written in the form a/b where a and b are integers with no common factor (the fraction cannot be simplified) => a/b...

Power stations use step-down transformers to decrease the voltage of the electrical output. The power lines have a constant resistance (say, R Ohms) which means there is a power loss across the lines give...

The kinetic theory models gas particles as points moving around with a given velocity. Heating the particles causes the transfer of heat energy, which is then used to increase the particles kinetic energy...

We can check for the presence of non-reducing sugars the Benedick's Test. If a reducing sugar is present in a solution, adding Benedick's reagent and heating will form an insoluble red precipitate. Non-re...
