How does a catalyst increase the rate of a chemical reaction? Select all that apply: 1. It provides a reaction path having a smaller activation energy. 2. It changes the mechanism of the reaction. 3. It makes the heat of reaction more negative. 4. It provides a reaction path having a larger activation energy. 5. It makes the heat of reaction more positive.

Activation Energy and Catalysis The graph shows three reaction pathways for the same biological reaction. One reaction pathway shows an uncatalyzed reaction, while two reaction pathways show catalyzed reactions, one catalyzed by enzyme X and one catalyzed by enzyme Y. For this particular biological reaction, enzyme X is a better catalyst than enzyme Y. Which statements apply to each reaction? Reactants Products Reaction pathway Drag each item to the appropriate bin: Catalyzed by enzyme X Fastest reaction Highest activation energy Catalyzed by enzyme Y Lowest activation energy Uncatalyzed reaction Slowest reaction Reaction A Reaction B Reaction C
