Answer: A. by lowering the activation energy

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.

Answer:  There are 0.5 grams of barium sulfate are present in 250 of 2.0 M BaSO_{4} solution.

Explanation:

Given: Molarity of solution = 2.0 M

Volume of solution = 250 mL

Convert mL int L as follows.

1 mL = 0.001 L\\250 mL = 250 mL \times \frac{0.001 L}{1 mL}\\= 0.25 L

Molarity is the number of moles of solute present in liter of solution. Hence, molarity of the given BaSO_{4} solution is as follows.

Molarity = \frac{mass}{Volume (in L)}\\2.0 M = \frac{mass}{0.25 L}\\mass = 0.5 g

Thus, we can conclude that there are 0.5 grams of barium sulfate are present in 250 of 2.0 M BaSO_{4} solution.
