A catalyst is when a chemical reaction occurs faster than normal.
The system is unaffected during a catalyst because both forward and reverse reactions are affected, meaning that quilibrium will occur faster nothing will change.

The answer is long wave length because long wave lengths contians less energy, and would not harm living things such as plants and animals. the more engey a wave length has, the less harmful it is.
short wave length: lots of energy, extremely hot. (examples: gamma rays, and UV (ultraviolet) rays.
long wave lengths: not much energy, safe for humans and other life on Earth.
hopefully this helps.
The question is incomplete, the complete question is;
Why is a terminal alkyne favored when sodium amide (NaNH2) is used in an elimination reaction with 2,3-dichlorohexane? product. A) The terminal alkyne is more stable than the internal alkyne and is naturally the favored B) The terminal alkyne is not favored in this reaction. C) The resonance favors the formation of the terminal rather than internal alkyne. D) The strong base deprotonates the terminal alkyne and removes it from the equilibrium.
E) The positions of the Cl atoms induce the net formation of the terminal alkyne.
Answer:
E) The positions of the Cl atoms induce the net formation of the terminal alkyne.
Explanation:
In this reaction, sterric hindrance plays a very important role. We know that sodamide is a strong base, it tends to attack at the most accessible position.
The first deprotonation yields an alkene. The strong base attacks at the terminal position again and yields the terminal alkyne. Thus the structure of the dihalide makes the terminal hydrogen atoms most accessible to the base. Hence the answer.
The percent by mass of potassium in K3Fe(CN)6 is 35.62%.
