I am studying for the MCAT and your videos have been an excellent source of review...thanks!

Is this example, would water be considered a catalyst? Since it is not used up and is present on both sides of the reaction.

[@sciencesimplified3890]

Can I ask, what do you mean when you say catalyst? Usually a catalysts changes the kinetics of a chemical reaction by stabilizing a transition state and thereby lowering the activation energy of a chemical reaction, therefore raising the rate constant and rate of a chemical reaction... So technically I’m not sure if water plays that role so perhaps that isn’t technically the proper terminology? You’re right in the sense that Usually catalysts are not used up and can be reused and are on both sides of an extended equation... but in this context I’m not sure If water is increasing the rates of these reactions, although I maybe wrong and you maybe right?

Excellent! 😂

jeeze luise.. you are talking way too fast for this (probably great) content to be appreciated
