2. They are chemically unchanged at the end of reaction. 1m
3. Only a small amount of catalyst is required. 1m
4. Most catalysts are very specific and only catalyse a
particular reaction. 1m
Total : 4m

(ii)- When reactions take place,bonds in the reactants must

be broken before new bonds can be formed in the 1m
products.
- This bond breaking requires a minimum energy which 1m
is called the activation energy.
- In a catalysed reaction, the activation energy is lowered 1m
