Answer:

Explanation:
2Al(s) + Fe₂O₃(s) ⟶ Al₂O₃(s) + 2Fe(s); ΔᵣH = ?
The formula for calculating the enthalpy change of a reaction by using the enthalpies of formation of reactants and products is

2Al(s) + Fe₂O₃(s) ⟶ Al₂O₃(s) + 2Fe(s)
ΔfH°/kJ·mol⁻¹: 0 -824.3 -1675.7 0
![\begin{array}{rcl}\Delta_{\text{r}}H^{\circ} & = & [1(-1675.7) + 2(0)] - [2(0) - 1(-824.3)]\\& = & -1675.7 + 824.3\\& = & \textbf{-851.4 kJ/mol}\\\end{array}\\\text{The enthalpy change is } \large \boxed{\textbf{-851.4 kJ/mol}}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Brcl%7D%5CDelta_%7B%5Ctext%7Br%7D%7DH%5E%7B%5Ccirc%7D%20%26%20%3D%20%26%20%5B1%28-1675.7%29%20%2B%202%280%29%5D%20-%20%5B2%280%29%20-%201%28-824.3%29%5D%5C%5C%26%20%3D%20%26%20-1675.7%20%2B%20824.3%5C%5C%26%20%3D%20%26%20%5Ctextbf%7B-851.4%20kJ%2Fmol%7D%5C%5C%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5C%5C%5Ctext%7BThe%20enthalpy%20change%20is%20%7D%20%5Clarge%20%5Cboxed%7B%5Ctextbf%7B-851.4%20kJ%2Fmol%7D%7D)
Answer: A. To change the potential energy of the reactants.
Explanation:
Catalysts make such a breaking and rebuilding happen more efficiently. They do this by lowering the activation energy for the chemical reaction. Activation energy is the amount of energy needed to allow the chemical reaction to occur. The catalyst just changes the path to the new chemical partnership.
