Which group of elements are often used as catalysts?
A catalyst is anything which causes a chemical or physical reaction. As such almost anything other than the most inate chemicals could act as a catalyst.
What are the advantages of using a catalyst on and industrial reaction?
In the chemical industry and the industrial research, catalysis play an important role.The different catalysts are in constant development to fulfill economic, political and environmental demands.When using a catalyst it is possible to replace a polluting chemical reaction with a more environmental friendly alternative. Today, and in the future this can be vital for the chemical industry.The catalysts could help in accelerating chemical reactions and/or making it possible at lower temperatures.
What are the most common catalysts in living organisms?
In humans at least, enzymes are called bio-catalysts.
What chemical reactions are most common to break down the molecules?
These are decomposition reactions.
What reactions do photosynthesis and glycolysis have in common?
No

What element speeds up chemical reactions?
1) Something that speeds up a chemical reaction but that is not changed by the reactions is called a catalyst.2)An element is a pure substance (not a compound) and while some elements (such as platinum) can speed up chemical reactions (eg platinum in a car exhaust catalytic converter), by far the most common catalysts are in fact compounds not elements. These compounds are organic in nature and called enzymes.
What acts as a catalyst during catalytic converters?
The common catalysts are platinum, rhodium and palladium.
Are organic catalysts called polysaccharides?
No, polysaccharides are a kind of sugars with much higher molecular mass and composed of monomers.The organic catalysts are catalysts that posses organic nature (They are carbon's compounds).The most common organic catalysts are the enzymes (which are proteins in fact) found in the living organisms.
What chemical reactions are most common to break down the molecules?
These are decomposition reactions.
What reactions do photosynthesis and glycolysis have in common?
No
Are tortoiseshell and white cats common?
yes they are very common in the UK or places with moderate temperatures yes they are very common in the UK or places with moderate temperatures
What are common behavior reactions associated with severe short-term stress reactions?
depression
What suffixes means enzyme?
A common suffix for enzyme names is "-ase". Two common enzymes are amylase and lactase. Enzymes are biological catalysts that speed up reactions.
Perhaps the most common enzyme on earth is?
RuBisCO is the most common protein on Earth. This protein is an enzyme.
