Answer: E. It decreases the activation energy hurdle.

Explanation:

Activation energy is the extra energy that must be supplied to reactants in order to cross the energy barrier and thus convert to products.

A catalyst is a substance which increases the rate of a reaction by taking the reaction through a different path which involves lower activation energy and thus more molecules can cross the energy barrier and convert to products.

The catalyst itself does not take part in the chemical reaction and is regenerated as such at the end.

Particles are farther apart in gases so substance X is water vapor

Explanation:

The best statement that fits the two described substances is that particles are farther apart in gases so substance X is water vapor. For a give mass of substance, gases occupies more volume.  

Gases do not have specific volumes, occupy space randomly and fills whichever container they are found in.  

Liquids on the other hand like solids have specific volume because their particles are very close together.  

Particles of gases are random and their molecules are far apart.
