 Another substance that will cut back the reaction rate isn't thought of a catalyst however a reaction matter (see below). Catalysts could also be classified as either homogenous or heterogeneous. A homogenous catalyst is one whose molecules area unit spread within the same section (usually vaporised or liquid) because the reactant's molecules. A heterogeneous catalyst is one whose molecules aren't within the same section because the reactant's, that area unit generally gases or liquids that area unit adsorbate onto the surface of the solid catalyst. Enzymes and different biocatalysts area unit typically thought of as a 3rd class. Catalysts might bind to the reagents to polarize bonds, e.g. acid catalysts for reactions of carbonyl compounds, or type specific intermediates that aren't created naturally, like osmate esters in metallic element tetroxide-catalyzed dihydroxylation of alkenes, or cause dissociation of reagents to reactive forms, like chemisorbed chemical element in chemical action chemical action. Kinetically, chemical action reactions area unit typical chemical reactions; i.e. the reaction rate depends on the frequency of contact of the reactants within the rate-determining step.
