In a reversible reaction, a catalyst:
1 increases the rate of the forward reaction only
2 increases the rate of the forward reaction to a greater extent than that of the backward reaction
3 increases the rate of the forward reaction and decreases that of the backward reaction to different extent
4 increases the rate of the forward and backward reactions equally
Explanation:
Catalyst enhances the rate of forward and backward reactions
