Which of the following statements is not correct? |
The efficiency of a solid catalyst depends upon its surface area Catalyst operates by providing alternate path for the reaction that involves a lower energy of activation Catalyst lowers the energy of activation of the forward reaction without affecting the energy or activation of the backward reaction Catalyst does not affect the overall enthalpy change of the reaction |
Catalyst lowers the energy of activation of the forward reaction without affecting the energy or activation of the backward reaction |
An alternative route for the reaction with a lower activation energy is provided by a catalyst. The reaction proceeds more quickly when the activation energy is smaller because more reactant particles have adequate energy to react. |
