Imagine you are in a laboratory. You are exploring the following reaction: A + B → C

When the product C is created, bubbles form. When 10mL of A is added to 10mL of B, the reaction takes twenty seconds. Your teacher gives you three unknown substances (X, Y, and Z), one of which is a catalyst for the reaction.

Design an experiment to test substances X, Y, and Z to determine which one is a catalyst for the reaction.
im stumped and just ate lunch.

i dont need an answer i just need a hand to go in the right direction

Vocaloid · Answer

I will leave the specifics of the experimental design up to you

However, the general idea: a catalyst increases the reaction rate, so you should test X, Y, and Z to see which one has the highest reaction rate
