The addition of a catalyst during a chemical reaction alters which of the following quantities?

The value of the rate constant for the reaction $A + B \to \text{products}$ depends on:

For an exothermic reaction,where the enthalpy of reaction is $\Delta H$ in $kJ/mol$,the minimum value for the activation energy will be:

The decomposition of formic acid on a gold surface follows first-order kinetics. If the rate constant at $300 \ K$ is $1.0 \times 10^{-3} \ s^{-1}$ and the activation energy $E_a = 11.488 \ kJ \ mol^{-1}$,the rate constant at $200 \ K$ is ............ $\times 10^{-5} \ s^{-1}$.
(Round off to the Nearest Integer).
(Given: $R = 8.314 \ J \ mol^{-1} K^{-1}$)

Consider the following statements related to the temperature dependence of rate constants. Identify the correct statements:
$A.$ The Arrhenius equation holds true only for an elementary homogeneous reaction.
$B.$ The unit of $A$ is the same as that of $k$ in the Arrhenius equation.
$C.$ At a given temperature,a low activation energy means a fast reaction.
$D.$ $A$ and $E_a$ as used in the Arrhenius equation depend on temperature.
$E.$ When $E_a > RT$,$A$ and $E_a$ become interdependent.
