As we learned in concept
Catalyst -
A catalyst is a substance that increases the rate of a chemical reaction without being consumed in the reaction.
- wherein
Berzelius in 1835, suggested the term catalyst for such substances.
Catalyst only change the rate of a reaction and do not alter the equilibrium constant in any way.
