Examples of some common catalysts are:
Manganese dioxide: in decomposition of Hydrogen peroxide and Potassium chlorate
Sulfuric acid: in some esterification reactions
Vanadium(V) oxide: in oxidation of sulfur dioxide to trioxide
etc.

What are examples of catalysts' affects on chemical reactions?
For example the iron oxide catalyst used for synthesis of ammonia.
What are industrial examples of catalysts?
Well, one would be the Ziegler-Natta catalyst that's used to make polypropylene.
What term describes a substance rhat lowers the amount of energy needed to start a chemical reaction?
This substance is called a catalyst.
Is MnO a catalyst?
Yes, it is a chemical catalyst.
Is copper a catalyst?
yeap, a heat catalyst

What is a substance that speeds up a reaction?
A catalyst is a substance that speeds up the rate of a chemical reaction.
A substance that speeds up rate of a chemical reaction?
Catalyst, biocatalyst or enzyme.
What is a A substance that speeds up a chemical reaction without being permanently changed itself?
This is a catalyst. A catalyst doesn't get destroyed during the reaction. Rather it's more of a reaction site where two substances can combine. One example of a catalyst is amyl alcohol, which can be used to produce pure potassium metal. However, it's destroyed during the process if there are impurities in the reaction because it's consumed in other reactions. Other examples of catalysts include catalase, platinum, and manganese(IV) oxide.
Which does a catalyst not change?
Catalyst is not a reactant.
Catalyst vs one without catalyst What is different?
what is the purpose of catalyst in textile paint?
What is the difference between a homogeneous catalyst and a heterogeneous catalyst?
The difference between a homogeneous and a heterogeneous catalyst is that in a heterogeneous catalyst, it is in a different phase from the reactants. However, in a homogeneous catalyst, it is in the same phase as the reactants.
What is the difference between positive catalyst and negative catalyst?
The substances which increase the rate of a chemical reaction are called a Positive Catalyst whereas The substances which decrease the rate of a chemical reaction are called Negative Catalyst. Positive Catalyst decreases the Activation energy of reactant molecules whereas negative catalyst increases the Activation energy of the reactant molecules. Positive Catalyst is also called the Promoter whereas negative catalyst is also called Inhibitor.
Is MnO a catalyst?
Yes, it is a chemical catalyst.
Is copper a catalyst?
yeap, a heat catalyst
