base on what type of catalyst you are yalking about but all catalyst are made up of element which bonded together to form a funtional compound which are inert to the reaction but provided a alternative route in the particular reaction.
Catalysts
These are called catalysts.
It was Jacob Berzelius who coined the term catalysts in 1835. While it was Johann Wolfgang who first discovered that catalysts can be used in lighters that was commercially successful in 1820s.
Catalysts speed up chemical reactions without being used up or damaged in the process. Catalysts provide an active site that helps to bring chemicals together and thus increase the likelihood of a reaction taking place (and thus speeding up the reaction).As well as speeding up reactions catalysts also reduce the activation energy needed for reactions to take place.Enzymes are biological catalysts made out of protein.All catalysts can be damaged or inhibited by either changing the shape of the active site or blocking it altogether.
Some of the facts are: 1. Catalysts never get consumed in a reaction 2. Catalysts lower the activation energy of the reaction by providing an alternative path to it. 3. Some catalysts do not take part in reaction. They just provide surface or sites for the reaction to take place.
Enzymes are organic catalysts made by living things.

Enzymes are catalysts.
Enzymes are catalysts.
No. Generally they are not catalysts
organic catalysts made of protein are called enzymes (these are usually made by living things)nonprotein based organic catalysts are simply called organic catalysts (these are usually synthesized artificially)
enzymes are biological catalysts

Catalysts
Of course not, catalysts doesn't react.
