Suggest explainations for:
The action of a solid phase catalyst to increase the rate of unimolecular gas—phase decomposition reaction.

Answer

A catalyst is a substance that accelerates the rate of a chemical reaction but remain chemically unchanged afterwards.The unimolecular gases gets absorbed over the catalyst and form activated complex, which gets changed into decomposed products easily.
