Adding a positive catalyst will increase the rate of chemical reaction.

Step-by Step-Step-by-step explanation:

  • Catalyst is a substance that can change the rate of a chemical reaction but the catalyst itself does not undergo any change.
  • Depending on the type of change it brings in rate of reaction, catalysr is classified as: Positive Catalyst and Negative Catalyst.
  • Catalyst that increases the rate of reaction is a positive catalyst.
  • Catalyst that decreases the rate of reaction is a negative catalyst.
