Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf It \ lowers \ the \ activation \ energy \ and \ it \ speeds \ up \ chemical \ reactions }}

Explanation:

A catalyst is a substance that <u>increases the rate</u> of a chemical reaction. Some examples are enzymes and acid-base catalysts.

They can do this by <u>lowering activation energy</u> (the energy needed to undergo a reaction) or modifying a certain mechanism in the reaction.

Catalysts are unique because they aren't consumed or used up in a reaction. They can be reused many times.

So, based on the information above, catalysts do not increase the activation energy or get consumed in the reaction. That leaves two correct answers: they lower the activation energy and speed up chemical reactions.

By the Balanced eqn

60g ethane requires 7x32= 224g oxygen

here ethane is in excess.oxygen will be fully consumed

hence

300g oxygen will consume  

60

⋅

224

=

80.36

g

ethane

leaving (270-80.36)= 189.64 g ethane.

By the Balanced eqn

60g ethane produces 4x44 g CO2

hence amount of CO2 produced =

⋅

80.36

=

g

and its no. of moles will be

=5.36 where 44 is the molar mass of Carbon dioxide

hope this helps
