Answer

catalysts can be reused multiple times

Explanation

The correct answer is catalysts can be reused multiple times. This answer directly addresses the question: Which of the following statements about catalysts is true? It matches the approved Chemistry 8462 learning objective and the linked subtopic. The other options are incorrect because they either change the rate, catalyst, reversible reaction, equilibrium, or graph context, or they do not answer the exact point being tested.

Common mistake

Ignoring Catalysts in Equations

Students often include catalysts in the overall chemical equation for the reaction.

Remember that catalysts are not part of the overall equation; they facilitate the reaction but do not get consumed.
