Mark the correct statement.

A.The catalyst catalyses the forward reaction

B.the catalyst catalyses the backward reaction

C.The catalyst influences the forward and backward✓ Correct

D.The catalyst increases the rate of forward reaction

Explanation

Catalyst increases the rate of reaction without itself undergoing any change. It does not affect the equilibrium. It, however, provides the alternate path of lower activation energy so that reaction will reach the equilibrium fast. Thus, the correct option is (c) The catalyst influences the forward and backward reaction to the same extent.
