how does a catalyst work?

Ait shifts the reaction toward the products
Bit changes the pressure of the products
Cit increases the temperature of reactants
Dit increases the temperature of the products
Eit decreases the activation energy hurdle

Verified Answer :

A catalyst decreases the activation energy hurdle. It provides an alternate pathway to the reaction product by decreasing the activation energy hurdle. The rate of the reaction increases as now the activation energy decreases. A catalyst alters the reaction rate without being consumed in the reaction.
